Hi...J has had low numbers today ...not sure why??
Woke on 5.2 ate cereal and injected half a unit. Went for bike ride and tested before and he was 6.4. Went he arrived home he tested and was 2.1!!! lowest he has been..
He treated it, ate some scrambled egg, toast and a icecream..and he is back up to 9.
He was a bit low yesterday too..3.2 in the morning I think.
I think he had better ring the nurse tomorrow to check his basal rate is ok etc I don't think he is eating enough slow release carbs at the moment to give him energy but I don't want to nag a lot🙂
He has only injected 1 unit of novorapid all day today so his insulin requirements are tiny...
Any thoughts to preventing these lows??? thank you
