Hi Everyone,
Could the warm weather be the cause for my 3 hypos in the last 24 hrs??

Reckon so Bex its what im putting my 3.7 down to earlier, and im a type 2 who has hypos very irregular.Its hitting 28 degrees where I am.Heat can cause your body to use insulin more effectively, thus causing a hypo...Keep your fluids up its really important to stay hydrated x

I thought that's what the issue was.
Getting abit tired of them now.
3.4 last night, 3.6 at 10 0'clock this morning then 3.7 just before 3 this afternoon. I'm going to reduce my next dose of apidra with my tea and maybe my basal by one unit at bed time until this hot spell blows over.

Could well be. Though bizarrely I've run high since yesterday evening and most of today. Humph! Would be nice if this diabetes lark played by its own silly rules sometimes!

A resounding yes from me Bex, I have one after another when it suddenly gets warm.

 

[Casper]

Yes, definitely.
I've had 4 low bloods today, one last night. Checking more often, and will reduce basal tonight. Fed up of eating jelly babies

I never thought I'd be sick of the sight of jelly babies!! What else works quickly?? I can't bear gluco tabs either.
