Howdy everyone! I got my new A1C today and it was 4.4. That means my average blood glucose is 80. The only problem that my doctor has with that lower number (last A1C was 5.7) is the number of hypo's that I have been having. Saturday night, my blood sugar dropped to 23 at 5:00 PM. I just felt light headed. No shaking at all. My hands usually shake when my blood sugar is low. My body is getting used to the low numbers. My doctor wrote me a prescription for a Glucagon Emergency Kit. I don't know if my Mother is capable of learning how to prepare the injection. I live with my Mother, she has some memory problems. She does know that when my blood sugar does go low, and she knows that if I do not respond to her during a hypo that she needs to call 911. I have read that a shot of Glucagon will make you vomit and nauseated. I hope I never need it. Oh well, I will enjoy the 4.4 A1C!:dance:
