I seem to bypass the shaky. I will feel odd and start to black out, manage to

take my blood sugar even though I feel " weird " and it will be 50-60... I wish

I had the shaky thing!

I have discussed this very issue with my DE....According to her, as we progress

through the disease (I think she said T2's) the biggest problem is that our

bodies begin to grow accustomed to the Hypo's and the symptoms become less

recognizable....I, particularly, will just be popping along and then suddenly

notice a dullness, or light-headed feeling and before I know it wobbly knees and

a lot of sweat and shakes...etc....and a test will show 57 if lucky or a 45 and

I need JUICE right now!!!!!
