My signs are often much more subtle these days. I do still get the sweats sometimes, though. I keep my tester next to the bed and am often testing half asleep. I also keep glucose tabs next to me. (Sour apple is my favorite) That prevents me from over treating a low, which was a problem before I was on the pump. I find I still feel low, even thought my bs has come back above 100. Last time I tracked it, I didn't feel better until my bs was around 180.

It was one of those lightbulb suggestions from my husband. Not sure when I started, but I know since an accident I had he doesn't like me walking around when I'm low. A long time ago, when I was still living at my parents house, I awoke low and crawled to my brother's door at the top of the stairs and told him I felt low. That's all I remember. Apparently, I blacked out and fell down the stairs, and was the recipient of a huge goose egg above my eye. Thankfully, that was all--it could have been much worse.

I started with the juice boxes, but they would send my bs too high in the other direction. The tabs work best for me. I'm often 40 or below when I wake to test these days, and unfortunately, the sweats are not what awaken me. But when I do get the sweats, the chills follow.
