I've noticed that the longer I have diabetes, the more unaware I,too, am of low blood sugars. I used to feel it coming but now it slams me so hard at times I'm scared I'll pass out. It actually pushed me to buy several diabetic bracelets because I can now see why some diabetics with low blood sugars are looked at as being drunk. I catch myself wandering around looking for sugar but can't seem to find it and it's right there in front of my face. I am noticing the more I actively test, the better I am at catching hypos.
