That of course assumes that on this one occasion Jimmy was in fact hypo and it is perfectly possible that the 2.2 was an erroneous reading. I had a strip gave me a 1.8 once which shocked the life out of me until I double checked it and then triple checked and in fact I wasn't hypo at all and it was clearly a rogue strip. I don't think you can assume anything about your hypo awareness or impairment of it from one incident. Meters are not accurate enough to make sweeping assessments from one reading in my opinion.

I’d agree if it was a one off but you would have double checked, and the OP says this isn’t the only time this has happened.
