[QUOTE="diva19871987, post: 299835, member: 41651"] This was a regular thing for me back when I was a heavy drinker 5 years ago. The following day I didn't just feel like death because of the alcohol but also the constant hypos which just left me so weak all day. It just seems like to much of an effort to allow myself to drink at all as a diabetic because as I said, once I start I can't stop. A bit like Pringles! You have 1 then you have them all in one go. I went years constantly feeling rough because it just played havoc with my diabetes and I never got control of it. One of the biggest and embarrasing things about hypos when drinking is it always seems to look like I'm one of the worlds biggest lightweights if they don't understand the diabetes. I have been know to collapse after 1 bottle of wine! Very annoying and embarrasing. [/QUOTE]
