1.9!!! Was 5.6 about an hour ago, was aware I might have injected too much as fancied chilli chocolate and the packet made no sense! (anyone ever tried to decipher a hotel chocolate wrapper?)

Anyway is it normal to get the giggles massively when having an awful hypo??

Think I freaked Dan out tonight which has made me feel awful. Sorry I'm rambling.

Ramble away, at least we all know what it is that your going through, the hypo behaviour can indeed be alarming to non-diabetic o/h's!

As for the giggles, well I guess anything goes when the brain is starved of glucose!! We may all react in different ways but I wouldn't think your is uncommon...I talk like a 3year old...really...slowly...and a...word...at a...time!
It drives my o/h bonkers, but I can't help it when in a really bad hypo state(usually night hypos).

Hope you manage to get your levels up and what the heck, carry on giggling, there is not enough laughter in this world!
 
I was like that in an ambulance once, by the time we actually got to A&E I was more or less back in the real world, however I had to listen to the paramedic lady reporting on what I'd said to them, to the doc on handover.

Deeply embarassing cos it was dead silly, so I pretended I was still out of it LOL

Love it!

Apparently I told a good friend who was staying with us last week "is it worth it?", which was a bit ott and she was really worried the next day. OMG
 
I've had a couple of lows like that, although have been alone whan they happened so I've no idea what my reactions might have been had I been in company 😱 Hope it doesn't happen again for you for a very long time! 🙂
 
Thanks all 🙂 I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who behaves in odd ways!

Love the fact you carried on pretending trophywench!

Northener - I completely agree! I'm hoping I don't see those numbers again for years 🙂
 
Or you see those numbers again either northener!! (forgot to add that bit - sorry)
