The blue font could be a very subtle diabetic eye test. I bet most diabetics had trouble reading the post
To the topic; I had a 50 hypo around midnight last night. Mine are always asymptomatic, no warning until pouring perspiration and numb legs below the knee and euphoria. I wish they`d make the little foil straw openings on the juice boxes just a bit larger, but the chocolate cake was really good and you don`t need any utensils!!
Usually I over correct and zoom my levels way up, then I over correct with some regular insulin, then I get low again 2 hours later, cause I forget about the nph still floatin through my system. Main thing is not to panic. I`m going to feel like **** no matter what and realize that a modest amount of carbs will usually start bringing me up or atleast stablize the situation. What I don`t get is why it takes so long to recover. Usually several hours before I`m totally functional. I get one hypo every week always between 11-12 am or pm, snack or not. Generally I feel great now that I`m on insulin. Jack
