I've read about how you must be careful when drinking alcohol while on medication as it can cause you to have a hypo. Does alcohol also lower your blood glucose if you are not on medication?
Just wondering if it's the alcohol itself that has a lowering effect, or the combination of alcohol and medication? I've been very good with my diet and avoiding alcohol, however I decided I would not worry about it on New Years Eve. I drank vodka with diet ginger and while I had all good intentions of not eating too much rubbish, I ate white bread, pastries, and even a chocolate mousse desert. I didn't go to bed until 3:30am so it was quite a few hours after I had eaten, however my reading was only 6.5 (116) ![]() I imagine if I was drinking champagne or wine it would have been much higher? Edited to add. I'm not on any medication that would have affected my levels Last edited by ronnni; 01-01-2017 at 11:53 PM. Reason: Extra information |
