yo shift
ok i wouldn't treat a low with bread it takes too long i'd have a small glass of fresh orange juice and poss two digestives. I would also go to your Dr and get him/her to increase your strips, if they say no then change your Dr asap. Trying to stave off a low and worrying abt running out of strips at the same time is not good as ideally you should retest abt 15-20 mins after having something to eat and then again 15 mins after that. Also do you have any gluco tabs? cos 3-4 of these sort out a low no prob then you just have something more slow releasing like a couple of digestive biscuits so that your levels don't drop so fast
keep us informed and i hope this helps
