| Well, yeah, as everybody has said, if you've been on this wild ride long enough you start to get a little hypo unaware. With me it's not so much unaware as differently aware, i used to feel the *physical* (shakiness, dizziness, hunger) symptoms, now i feel the *cognitive* (slow reading / thinking, inability to concentrate, short temper, just general stoooopidity)
I can go from I'm fine my bg is 100, oh **** if I don't eat something *NOW* I'm going to pass out, my bg is 30, within an hour. Sometimes faster. BUT I can feel the low coming at 100, and so always have sweets ready when I get low. I've yet to have a hypo, in my *adult* life, that I've not been able to treat myself.
