| |  5 days no hypos...
Wow man, I can't believe it. I've gone 5 days so far with no recorded hypos on my monitor. I haven't had a streak like this since October last year.
Just thought I'd share this, I had to tell someone.

Thanks belyro (and Thanks BriOnH)...yeah not on the pump until tomorrow, but I've been really watching myself, I mean LOTS. I've been talking less insulin (both basal and bolus') and the moment I'm too far away from a meal with a BG around 5.4 I eat something.
I've just been so scared of getting hypo unawareness since I don't feel the hypos in the 3s that I've been very careful as of late.
I actually want to test having a hypo just to see if I feel it in the threes again, and yet, I don't want a hypo..know what I mean?
