Hi, i have been really good and managed to keep BG under 10 all weekend, yesterday i had a lie in (had a few wines on Sat night) so fiest BG test at 12.30, it was 5.8 wow great!, went to sisters for lunch but was a roast and only had 1 potato. so BG + 2 hrs was 7.7, came home made tea which was salad did a mix some potato, some Wholemeal pasta and some couscous. before i started eating it i felt really shakey, and not very well at all, did BG it was 7.9 so all good, within an hour i felt weepy, and needed to sleep so went to bed at 8pm! my daughter woke me at 9ish and i was going to check BG but was sweating, shaking and feeling so tired i couldn't get myself to do it.

Woke up today feeling fine bg 8.4

What was all that about?

Could it be the after effects of the wine? Perhaps you had a hypo when your daughter woke you up? It would have been good to test to see what your levels were, but i understand if you didnt feel up to it. Hope you feel better today.🙂Bev
 
maybe if your sugars have been high for a while your hypo awareness is higher? When mine were very high for over a few days/weeks (eek) i went shaky at 5-7. Also you could have a bug or something?
 
Hi Julie , I hope you are feeling better now, do you think you may have been hypo? it does sound like the classic symptoms . take care 🙂
 
don't know if Hypo or not, feel fine today. maybe it had nothing to do with BG at all.
I guess its easy to feel ill and blame BG for everything lol

Glad you are feeling better. Sometimes we just feel rotten for no apprent reason, even when our BGs are good. If I have been high I start to feel the signs of a hypo around 5.6. There are also a number of 24 hour bugs doing the rounds.
