Good morning. 8.4 for me this morning. Despite dialing my evening Levemir back by 3 units to account for a long walk yesterday afternoon and going to bed on 8.3 and no evening bolus insulin, I had a naughty hypo at 2am which took two treatments to fix. First attempt I woke up on what Libre said was 3.2. Didn't double check it it with a finger prick but probably about 4 in reality. Took my hypo treatment and dropped straight back off to sleep (not that I properly woke up anyway) and slept through the reminder to recheck, so 45mins later I woke up again sweating this time on what Libre said was 2.3! Oops! Doubt it was anywhere near that low but very definitely still hypo. Another hypo treatment and this time checked it was coming up before I zonked again. Nice steady 6.6 at 4.45am but then "Dawn" must have started to kick in which is pretty unusual for me. Anyway, another 2 units knocked off my morning Levemir as well.
@Gruers Really disappointed that they weren't able to fix you up as simply as expected. Not quite sure how to interpret your post but hoping it isn't indicating that you have had a stoke and will be keeping fingers crossed for bypass surgery as soon as they can fit you in for it. Best of luck.

Please take it a bit easier. You are pushing your body too hard. It needs time to rest and recover. And walking in "clarts" is so much harder than solid ground.

Done too much?.... DEFINITELY!!Then I felt really unwell. Sweating, sickly and generally just rubbish. Went for a lie down and it slowly settled down. Done too much maybe?
