Hi. Newly diagnosed and had my first hypo last night at 3.30am. By BG was 3.2 mmol. I ate 7 jelly babies and a small square of chocolate. Then about 15mins later I ate an apple. About 10 mins later my BG was 9.5. I took my basal at 8am this morning and my BG was 9.6. Had breakfast at 9.30am and BG was 11.0 before I ate. So it was creeping up. So normally with breakfast I would have 2 units of Novorapid but because my BG was high I added on a correction dose and took 3 units of Novorapid. Was this a reasonable thing to do do you think or should I not have corrected?
Also, should I eat less jelly babies and skip the chocolate next time I hypo just to aim to bring my BG back to around 5.5?
