Pump plus a cgm is a life changer if insurance will cover it. Some of them connect with each other now and can adjust basal automatically to help prevent lows.

@spudeater65 Glad you are better now. I too have diabetes and suffer sugar crashes. So far nothing as severe as that. I do like the honey idea and may pick up a few packets next time I’m at a KFC. They keep those around for the biscuits. My killer is pancakes. I will crash hard about three hours after eating them unless I load up on protein soon after. Peanut butter is my friend. Gets me through the night. I used to wake up at 3am in a cold sweat and puking until I figured out how to manage it better.
Take care

Thank God for caring wives… I have never got that low but too close for comfort… By the way they also make a pure glucose packet used to care one all the time when I scuba dived…

Very scary! Im not diabetic but my pancreas is shot and i have to watch my sugar levels that i eat to keep them balanced. Sometimes I still crash but its pretty rare these days. The lowest I’ve ever seen my sugars was 19. I have no clue how i didnt go unconscious. It does feel like you got hit by a truck after a crash too. Not a good feeling. Glad your wife moved fast!

Happened to my dad when I was a kid. He was eating hog maws and starting convulsing. I put a candy in his mouth and called the ambulance. Once they arrived my dad was awake and functioning. Take care :pray:
