Do you find since you stopped your lantus you feel more tired and less energetic. I find when i have spells of less insulin i feel more tired and tempremental. At the mo i am having another spell of needing more insulin-lantus include and feel brilliant, compared to when i have to reduce insulin.

No, not really, but this is probably because the main reason for reducing my insulin is due to doing more exercise and this tends to give me more energy. My levels have been just as good since stopping the lantus, but perhaps when you use less your levels are a bit higher and maybe you are very sensitive to the slightly increased levels?
 
Fine now thanks 🙂 Pigeon, I don't have any fizzy drinks - never liked them so they never occur to me to buy, but will consider getting a bottle of something in tomorrow!

I'm not a fan of fizzy drinks either Alan, donated many cans of Coke to other people as I never used them for hypo's 😱 I use Lucozade Sport, raspberry flavour and it's not too bad 🙂
 
Wow, you usually got your diabetes in very well controlled, bet it's surprised you as its do to us!! Hope you have recovered from it, I remember Carly was at 1.7 she started fitting and it was scary so I try never let her go that low.
