I know it might sound unlikely, but I've looked back over my records since diagnosis, and it has never happened. What used to happen was that I would be below 4.0 more often, but that has improved now. In fact, I've only had 5 hypos in the last 30 days and one slightly false reading above 10 (false because it was taken at bedtime, before my NR had finished doing its stuff).
Hi Northerner, just interested to know if you do the 2 hour check? If i didnt check A for the 4 hours between meals - then most of the time he would be in range (apart from the odd blip of course!) - so when i ask about corrections - i mean for the in-between meal levels etc..
I have read accounts of people having hba1c's that are too high, but meter levels are all within range, however, its the time inbetween the meter checks that they have been running high and just not been aware of it - so i now check A 2 hours after a meal - sometimes he is over 12 so i do correct - but then he will need a cereal bar or similar so he doesnt hypo before the 4 hours is up (nr running out). This is why i am looking forward to the pump to iron out the 'blips' inbetween meals - although i realise that sometimes this cant be done - but i think the pump at least gives us a fighting chance!🙂
Also, i think A might be very sensitive to lots of foods as he seems to spike with about 50% of food - which might explain the early days of huge swings and us tearing our hair out!😱Bev
