[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 1576202, member: 30007"] It's usually considered to be an issue if you don't feel a hypo until you are lower than 3.5, and if you don't feel at lower than 3.0, then you're already in the realm where your brain is impaired due to the lack of glucose in your blood. At the levels you're at [USER=380820]@empink[/USER], then you should be speaking to your DSN. [USER=68789]@Fairygodmother[/USER] - I'd completely disagree with your statement: As it just isn't the case. In relation to driving and handling heavy machinery, then there are guidelines that one should be above 5 mmol/l, but if you are sat at a desk all day, then there's no need to be worrying below five, especially if you are able to manage your levels well. The recommendations with regard to treating below five relates much more to people that swing up and down a lot, but that's a different point. [/QUOTE]
