| Did you test your BG a bit later -- an hour or so after recovering? It takes a minimum of 15 minutes for any carbs (other than possibly the glucose tablets or paste which EVERY D should keep on their person ALL the time) to start working. We've ALL gone too low too rapidly wherein our only thought is to keep ingesting sweets (which unfortunately we can't even taste) until we start to feel a bit of relief. Only to realize later that we "overdosed". That's why it's so important to try to sense early signs of hypo, with time to test to confirm before "treating". If caught early enough we are still aware enough to not overdose in treatment and able to avoid the "rollercoaster". I've actually caught myself trying to test my BG when I was so hypo that I couldn't figure out how to do the test. Luckily my BG tablets were nearby and I was still sane enough to take some as a precaution. Good Luck and just remember -- We've ALL Been There! |
