So recently I've been getting my hypo symptoms & when I do a BGL my sugars are normal or even a little high. But then, when I really am having a hypo, I don't have any symptoms. That I know of, its usually my friends telling me I'm acting weird, eat some sugar. Anyone else have this problem?

It's good to have friends!

I have had the "false" hypos; this usually happens when your blood sugar has been high, for some time (ie when you were first diagnosed), and your body is accustomed to the high blood sugar levels. Once you get your blood sugars in a normal range (ie in better control), your body will get used to the "normal" lower blood sugar levels and the "false" hypos will generally subside.

I've driven my blood sugar to an even low and therefore loose my "hypo" feelings a bit. I can get as low as 2.6 and still not feel it. On the other hand, if I get my blood sugar up to say 8-9 and it then quickly drops back to 5.5 and there around I feel hypo. It's always the quick drop whatever "high" level I fall from. So, it’s a good thing to care and keep the numbers low, but not in a way that you jeopardize your "feel" for hypos. Once I nearly went to bed with a 2.8 without feeling it, and as I normally fall during sleep it could have ended up badly.

Glad to see it's not just me. I've been having these feelings lately. I worry about driving when I feel it because I dont know if my readings are correct.
