I took it pretty well man, my body let me know when I was down on BG, so i just ate some sugar and some protein and I feel fine, if it hits again I have a ProteinCarb Shake right next to me with a banana. So Im not worried at all dude. Slin use is common sense. But everyone is diff, so I guess maybe some should measure.
Not the best idea to go off how you feel over a bg monitor, some people will feel hypo at 4.0 some closer to 3.0 if you go down to 2.0 you will black out and fit, possibly in a coma. My mates been a diabetic since birth and she still has problems now and again, her las fit she bit 4 holes in her tonuge.
If you go unconcious and fit then you won't come round till your arrive at hospital and they bring you round, my mate was fiting for 30mins.
I read another post saying you should keep your bg at 8.0 or above when using slin. So letting it drop to 3-4 and feeling hypo before consuming more carbs is the wrong idea and playing with fire.
Once hypo fully kicks in it will linger even after consuming large amounts of carbs, its far better to get your bg up to 8 and hold it there from the start then allowing your bg to drop to 3-4 and have to eat huge amounts to get it back up basicly fighting against the slin to get bg up is a lot harder, hypo can linger for hours once its kicked in even after carbs so its best to avoid it, it will freak you out.
When I went hypo I I couldn't concentrate, my vision was scattered and cloudy, noise and voices realy irratated me I just wanted to curl up in a ball, I vomited all my pwo shakes and food up from the panic. Its not somewere you want to go its the werst feeling you can get tbh, horrible. And knowing you have slin in you that's still active for hours will frighten the shit out of you. That day I threw my slin out thinking FUK THAT!..... Then I bought some more a few month later to give it another go lol.
Imo 5iu or below you will be fine without a bg monitor but over 5iu its a must.
