I had two lows at work as well yesterday (59 and 46), due to raising my basal pattern on my insulin pump. I hate hypoglycaemia! It makes me tremble, blurs my eye sight, takes away my concentration and gives me an overall not feeling well.
You don't know me yet, maybe you do. If you don't, you will get to know me by reading this blog. If you know me, you might learn more about me, reading this blog, since I don't have the time to keep up with all of you. I'm a witty, young at heart hobby cook, always in for a good time, craving carbs but not eating many. An open book to many, spontaneous, outgoing, loving and caring personality with Type 1 diabetes.

A freaking 22!
In the heat of the night, a horrible sensation rushed through my body. I had this dream that somebody was chasing me and was scaring the daylight out of me. My heart was pounding and I was getting out of breath. And then I was shot... I woke up and felt absolutely wound up. My Terumo glucose meter is always laying next to me in bed, for emergency calls. I tested right away and saw a freaking 22! DUH! Thank you, Dr. Feelgood, for raising my basal pattern. I knew this was going to happen! Thankfully I can still rely on my dreams to wake me up. What would've happened if I had not woken up? Don't even want to go there... This morning I got up with a 58. That's still too low. Normal blood glucose is between 80 and 126 mg/dl, remember..
