I think you should report back to your GP straight way, in case you are suffering an allergic reaction, it is possible to be allergic to some of the other ingredients in the jab, not necessarily the insulin itself.

Miss Honey Pot i had something similar im not a doctor so you must check it out, its not a hypo at 10 but i had several false hypos at the start of my insulin body gets used to high levels now it thinks something wrong so starts to make you feel like a hypo its still horribe also at the beginning i suffered from anxiety same symptoms i know how you feel.
 
Pleased things are going ok. It is a big change. Your body has got use to higher sugar levels. Now that they are dropping you will notice that.

Well done so far

I'm really sorry but I couldn't log into this forum on my phone and with being on computers all day I very rearly go on it at home. All sorted now.

Jabs are going just fine! Went to the doctors last week and in two months I have got my HBA1C down from 83 to 56.

I have changed my diet and also resisted cake and biscuits at work. Eating sweet stuff doesn't seem to bother me now. Funny how the brain works.

I have Osteoarthritis in my shoulder that is being treated and I need to work on, but today I am joining the gym. I am extremely positive and looking forward to shaping up.

That is good news about your diabetes. Not so good about your shoulder , Arthritis can be so painful.
