Type 2 with Insulin
Injected usual dose (mixture of fast and long acting) around 7 pm, had only mozzarella and cucumber, then around 10 pm symptoms of hypoglycemia.
Bg was 2.3 !
Had two moderate slices of brown bread, a few sips of coke, handful of dried fruit and couple of biscuits, then again several small hard candies.
Around midnight bg was 9.1 !
What did I do wrong ?
Possibly not enough food after insulin and then too much sugar.
Shall I eat more after insulin to prevent hypos and avoid unnecessary sugar intake to combat low bg ?
The liver cannot manage this fluctuation, but this is what we have, right ?
Thank you.
