Usually, but not always. I almost always awaken before hitting 2.7(50)... but one of my two off-the-meter hypos-- below 1.1(20) -- was upon awakening.

I havnt had a bad 'i need glucogen' hypo since i was 12! but before that i used to have them alot.
Quite a few ambulance rides, and quite a few glucogen shots..
Granted my diabetes was not brought on by lack of insulin, but by far too much..!!! rather i developed another condition which my pancreas had to be completely removed along with half of my spleen but thats another story~!
