[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2687848, member: 25851"] 5.9 just before midnight last night when I went to bed. 5.4 when I got up again at 03:30. Very odd. I felt as though I was having a hypo - hot, shaky, heart pounding, breathless, etc, but when I checked BG was 5.4 so it wasn't a hypo. Same thing happened a few days ago. Checked my oximeter and it gave me a reading of 82% which explains the breathlessness (also happened a few days ago but not quite so low) and pulse of 152 bpm! Not surprising then that I felt odd. Took painkillers and sat in the chair to wait until it all calmed down, which it did. Oxygen back to the normal (for me) 95% and pulse hovering around 80 bpm. I forgot to take my tablets yesterday - that might have let my BP go up. Not sure if that's what I did last time it happened. Not pleasant so I must remember to take my pills and hope that makes a difference. Breakfast: BG still pretty low, so didn't take bolus insulin. One chicken thigh and a couple of big spoonsful of bigos. I did take all of my pills afterwards. 2nd meal: Finish the bigos but add some peas to it - I intended to do that before this, but forgot but I will add them today. [/QUOTE]
