Another drop today! No gym today. Just a normal day, done stuff at home, went to work, errands, etc. Ran like a headless chicken all day but that's pretty normal for me.

The drop itself wasn't that big -- I was 7.1 mmol/L (127 mg/dL) perhaps 20 minutes before it happened and dropped down to 5.5 (99 mg/dL)... but it sure took me by surprise. And boy! Was it fast.

I figured 5.5 is really good so I didn't correct it. Once I was over the sudden drop (a few minutes) I was fine. Yay! Stayed under 6 mmol/L (108 mg/dL) most of the day.

The key here is to test I think.

Fasting sugars this morning : a whopping 10.4 mmol/L (187 mg/dL). Go figure

So here I am, getting over the fear of dropping very fast... and also the fear of going too high afterwards. Been a diabetic for many years now and still learning stuff! Ah well
