Hi @Rie26 my BG this morning was 5.8 and that's fine for me, BG dropped last night to 4.3 made me feel like legs where jelly and shaky and head fuzzy being in the 4 s is not good for me. Take care!

Ooo yikes! I completely understand that when it's in the 4's! My DN told me that 4's are fine as that is normal for a non diabetic but it can still make you feel icky. Take care of yourself today too hun xHi @Rie26 my BG this morning was 5.8 and that's fine for me, BG dropped last night to 4.3 made me feel like legs where jelly and shaky and head fuzzy being in the 4 s is not good for me. Take care! K
Thanks Rie26 this morning I'm fine it was an unusual feeling to say the least, I've had occasional lows in 4 s and similar effects had one once when I was driving had to call off and had a coffee with a glug of cream was alright again in a short time. It's very strange even after 17 years diabetes throws us some strange happenings.!KHiya, thanks for your replynot feeling 100% today I feel a bit icky. That's the only way to describe it really. Gliclazide seems to be a powerful drug lol. Was so annoyed I had a hypo as had done well for 2 weeks. I know it's my body and not me doing anything wrong though. Such a pain at times. Hope you're okay today x
Morning Goacher55. What would we do without jelly babies? What was your "magic carb bar" by the way? I hope you are feeling better by now. Hypos are just horrible!3:30 I’ve just woken up so checked bloods.3.3 This really isn’t a pattern I want to get into so 5 jelly babies and a cuppa. One of my magic carb bars for after my cuppa and I should be good to go.
Hope ' you have a more relaxing day today, Bubbsie.Morning...what a day yesterday...off to collect some Christmas presents...just one or two to finish ...set off in good spirits...came home in a foul mood...couldn't find a parking space...elbowed out of the way by several other shoppers...lengthy waits...as for the roads...like The Circus Maximus...resolved to finish my shopping online...have them delivered direct to my door...got home...tea...news on...apparently after 'Black Friday' comes 'Cyber Monday'...too much for me...it was savage out there...woke to a 4.9.
Have one more to collect dogslife...have a large bottle of gin placed on the dining room table...all ready just in case I need comfort when I get back home...heading out now...wish me luckHope ' you have a more relaxing day today, Bubbsie.

Thanks, it was different, as a 7 year old the needle for the glass syringe was nearly as thick as my leg lol, you had to boil the syringe and needle for 20 minutes and use them quite a long time.
