[QUOTE="BooJewels, post: 869549, member: 181094"] It can be a dilemma choosing what booze to drink as any carbs can raise BG, but the alcohol itself lowers it. So there's probably some truth in what CollieBoy says. So presumably you have to drink just enough to reach equilibrium. ;) I once witnessed my (also diabetic) Dad keel over after downing a long cold G&T at the end of a walk on a hot day. If he hadn't had slimline tonic he might have avoided the hypo. [/QUOTE]
