@the.betes: I had a low last night. I'm still feeling it this morning. The scary part isn't the number. It's that the more lows we have, the quieter our warning signs get, until the first alarm we hear is the CGM, and by then we're already at 50. So I'm curious. What's YOUR first sign you're going low? Shaky hands? Sweating? Getting suuuuper crabby with the people you love? Or do you not feel them at all anymore? If you love with type 1, share this so people know what's happening when we go quiet. We are the ONES. // Year 34 Day 253 🩸💉 #YourBestT1DYear
I’ll send this to my 6 yo lol although he can’t tell us yet

It's even scarier when you're alone. Especially if you are going low and you have IOB. It's a race & you're fighting with everything you have.

Am I the only person who’s hearing/feeling in my ears gets muffled? That didn’t start until the lows in 40’s started.

I've started getting a panic response during my lows where I'll start crying if I have to talk to people.

My fav low is waking up in the middle of the night in a hotel room. Nothing to get me back up and having to half dead zombie walk out of my mind like I’m wasted down to the little snack bar at the front desk to get something 😂😂

It annoys me when perfectly healthy people say “my blood sugars low I need to eat” when they’re hungry. Like you have no idea what it really feels like

I was recently diagnosed with type 1 LADA and am currently in the honeymoon phase. I have just started using long-acting insulin.
My blood sugar has never been below 6 mmol/L (108 mg/dL) since I started monitoring it.
Today, I experienced strong symptoms of low blood sugar, but my glucose readings only showed 5.7 mmol/L (103 mg/dL).
Can a rapid drop in blood sugar cause hypoglycemia-like symptoms, even when the actual level isn’t technically low? Or could it be because this is a level my body hasn’t experienced in several years?

I have a T1d son and I had my first hypoglycemic episode tonight. It was terrifying! I literally could not move my body. It’s awful to think that’s what he deals with.

My body shakes from inside for minutes…. And even after taking something to raise the sugars up…. It takes more minutes for the shaking to end
