Hi everyone,
This is my first post on this forum so I'll try and keep it short!
As you all know the weather in Britain has been hot over the last few days. Well today my blood sugar levels have been a pain and will not stop plummeting below 4 mmol/mol. I decided to have a nap earlier because I was feeling wiped out so I let my partner know that I was going to sleep for 20 minutes. I passed out as soon as my head hit the pillow and fell into a deep sleep. Unaware that I was having a hypo. My libre 2 sensor was sending out an alarm to both my and my partners phone but I did not hear it. My partner, however, did but dismissed it and failed to check on me.
After waking up in a pile of sweat 20 minutes later, I realised what had happened and asked my partner why he hadn't checked on me, knowing that I don't tend to wake up to hypos. He got defensive and told me "I thought you could look after yourself". He didn't seem to care at all. I know that I am an adult and I can look after myself but I feel like I just lost a lot of trust in him and don't know if I'm safe living alone with someone who could do that to me. Am I overreacting?
