Hypoglycemia

Hello everyone!

Does anybody deal with hypoglycemia while on the medication? I’m getting to the end of my fourth week and my dose is still 2.5mg.

Two days after my third dose, I woke up feeling awful, checked on the glucose monitor, 41. It took me around 40 minutes after having some simple sugars to fix it and I felt better after.

Then one day after my fourth dose, I started feeling weird and after checking, it was 54. That time, it took about 25 minutes to fix it after some glucose tablets.

The first time it happened, I was definitely under eating, being serious about going low carb. The second time it happened, I thought I wasn’t so heavy on the low carb. So I don’t really know what happened.

I really want to be able to stay on the medication for now and I imagine that at some point, I’d like to increase the dose. So how would you proceed? Would you try to split the dose? Change time of the shot? I want all the tips that worked for you!

I will mention it to my doctor, I just like to hear what worked for other people! And I’m not diabetic or taking any medication that could lower my blood sugar.

Thank you!!
