Im not feeling the symptoms of hypos much anymore and I know this can be dangerous. So im going to run my blood sugar high for a while so il feel the symptoms again. Im just wondering how long I should do this for? A week or two? More? Less? Thanks 🙂

Run slightly up until you've seen your consultant or DSN about this as a matter of some priority. Not your GP or practice nurse, unless you can't see your DSN or consultant within a week or so.
If I were you, I'd want to have the reason for my lack of sensitivity investigated urgently. It may be a simple change of insulin type could assist or there might be another problem that needs to be sorted out.
But you need to see someone soon.

I agree that getting an appointment is pretty important. the general advice is to run slightly higher, and try to avoid all lows. Have you been having alot of hypos recently? Testing frequently should help you catch downward trends before you get too low. Hope that you manage to sort it out soon.
