[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2061528, member: 401801"] From the sound of it, and I'm echo-ing others here, you're having false hypo's. They feel like the real deal, because your body honestly thinks you are experiencing a hypo. It's used to higher levels, so it panics when you get to levels that are considered normal. So hello sweats, tremors, rubbery knees, hair standing on end, maybe even palpatations? Don't over eat on carbs when that happens, or your body will never get used to normal, healthy levels. It just takes a little while. Ride it out, you'll be okay. Sit down, have a cuppa, maybe snack on something fatty like walnuts, high carb content sausage (Do you get bifi's in the UK?) or a boiled egg. Don't grab the crisp bag. Your body was high for a long time before diagnosis... It was a gradual process and you didn't notice it happening. Now you're not going the gradual route: This is a mad dash for lower levels. And that has its affects. This is one of them. Carb flu (fatigue, head, joint and muscle aches) is another. Both will go away if you stick with it. Upside: What you're doing is working. Yay! (It will get better soon, honest!) [/QUOTE]
