Hi maureen5752 Yes it will go down do not worry I think like this sometimes just have to take every day as it comes I guess.Morning all. 7.5 Will it never go down
Through night x@Cumberland did you treat a hypo through the night or before bed?
Maybe too much carb in correction?Through night x
hi @ickihun not had a goods night sleep since diagnoses been getting pains in legs and feet and think my meds need changing as have always been high BS levels first thing got my meds review this Wednesday so hopefully get things sortedHi @eldergarth do you get your 8 hrs sleep? It might go lower if you get full rest. I'm only guessing thou. Good luck.
@Tim55 out of interest was it low carb dark chocolate? 85% or less?
When I went hypo a guzzled a small bottle of lucozade like you say you panic and I do too, the DAFNE course instilled into me not to panic and to drink a third of a small bottle of lucozade (not the lot) to treat hypo - this I did and it got me up into range unlike when I guzzled the full bottle I went soaring into the teensMaybe too much carb in correction?
Others are finding protein kick carrying them along til dawn. Avoiding liver dump too.
Be careful thou. Experiment with a little less carb and then adjust again if necessary.
I've made the same mistake recently so I did protein instead with a teaspoon of chocolate spread. It was spot on.
Think it through first as if you're anything like me I panic when I get hypo shakes.
Everyone's different but I was told to drink lucosade but just a little sent me very high, then I was told about jelly babies which I always carry now, I find them great and easy to carry being small. Good luck hope you didn't mind me sayingWhen I went hypo a guzzled a small bottle of lucozade like you say you panic and I do too, the DAFNE course instilled into me not to panic and to drink a third of a small bottle of lucozade (not the lot) to treat hypo - this I did and it got me up into range unlike when I guzzled the full bottle I went soaring into the teens
I have dawn phenomenon bigtime! What snacks before bed do you recommend? I can wake up with 9's and 11's some days. Help!Did you have a snack before you went go bed? Your pancreas and liver need something to work on when your asleep, otherwise you will have a liver dump known also as dawn phenomenon. I find healthy grazing and exercise during the day is good, it keeps things ticking over and avoids large sugar spikes throughout the day.
