Decided im going to start swimming again i need my exercise and hoped it wood help get blood sugars down. Went today tested before session and it was 29.4 did 20 lengths and then just messed about for about 20 minutes suddenly felt ill like you do when having a hypo so got out and tested again it was 15.00. i really did feel ill and like i was having a very bad hypo so i had a small packet of jelly babies and got home Dont know if i did the right thing by treating it as hypo but it felt like one so i did what i did Is it possible to have hypo at that no.
Questions for further swimming
1) is testing before and after enough
2) whats the best thing to take with me in case of hypo
3)should i think of eating something maybe before i go?
Then to cap it all when i got home i found i had lost my house keys, so had to call council out to be fair as soon as i told them i was diabetic and that it was nearly time for me to take my insulin she said i will put you top of the list and she did bless her only waited an hour. tested again and its now 17.00
