Got up for a wee about 6:30 this morning then dozing in bed until at about 7:45 suddenly felt very nauseous and sweaty. Felt like throwing up but didn’t think I would make it to the bathroom – just had to lie there. Lasted about 30 minutes then felt more or less Ok, bit shaky, bit hungry.
Been Type 2 for just over 10 years, on Metformin and Pioglitazone, not very good control until I found this site last year and started low-carbing around May. In December DN said I’d “made her day” HBA1c down from 7.9 to 6.5, lost 8kg, cholesterol 4.6 blood pressure “the best it’s ever been”. Trouble is fell off the wagon around Christmas and have been struggling to get back on – keep back sliding. Like last night thought “blow it, it’s Saturday night I’ll have scampi, chips and peas”.
I’ve had 3 or 4 of these episodes in the last 5 years but this is the first time in early morning – a bit disturbing. Didn’t do a blood test, partly because I've run out of test strips and partly because when these things happen I don’t feel up to it.
