Hello.
I have doubts about how to solve an episode of hypoglycemia.My doctor has always told me that before a descent, that eats, that I do not hesitate and eat.But the thing is that if I act like this and how, in the end I have a rebound effect and after a while I am in a very high hyper.Then, as I overwhelm myself, I reduce what I eat and end at another hypo.And so I, as in a roller coaster, from hyper to hip and hyper to hyper.How do you solve hypoglycemia episodes?
Thank you.
Paco

The first, what do you eat?When are you eating?

When in doubt, if you cannot check sugar, eat, it is what they have always told me, and with certainty, because more, of course.But you don't have to eat as if there were no tomorrow, some nights is what I was doing.

It is recommended, sugary drinks, I take a little less than half a glass of juice, wait 15 minutes and see how sugar evolves.Depending on whether there is fast insulin activates one or two cookies once stabilized, to stay.
Other options, a couple of sugarly dissolved in water ....
I carry some mini snacks in my bag, in case it catches me on the street, they climb me between 35 and 55, quickly because it is cookie crushed so that according to one or two.
They sell pure glucose too, very comfortable but very expensive.
In general, eat 15 grams of HC of rapid absorption, which do not need to be deferred and you have to wait at least 15 minutes to test how it works to you.

Yes, I usually eat as if there were no tomorrow, because my first endocrine already told me that while I felt bad, to eat.And, of course, you start eating and you don't stop feeling bad in a good time.And then the rebound is presented.I am going to listen to you and I will try drinking half a glass of juice or coca-cola, to see how.
Thanks for the tips.
Paco.

I take juices or glucose gel, 15-20 grams, you also have to take into account if you have fast insulin acting, in that case you have to eat something else.And remember that glycemia normally rises before symptoms disappear
