BG of 54!
Hey, guys, I am scared…..i took my blood and it was 65. I then ate the only
thing I had around…..some candied sweet potatoes that I had made for the
kids and I waited 15 min and it is now 54….my girlfriend is going to bring
orange juice and a candy bar. I will try the juice and wait 15 min again.
This is the right way to go right??

Hope you’re rising by now Christine. Be sure not to overlook other
concentrated sweets you might have around the house. I’ve used pancake
syrup and old marshmellows in a pinch.

Christine, Mine fell to 54 a few months ago and I was kinda in la la land.
We were at the mall and my son who remembered what to do got me orange juice
and I felt the results within 5 or 10 mins and then I went and ate some
protien. They say the juice is better because it gets into you bloodstream
faster. You take care!! Let us know you are ok. Hugs Shelia :O(

You bet, Sheila. I just finished my swim and walk and I am now at 79. I
called Sarah and she said nothing to worry about.( Sarah is a Diabetic friend
from NY) I will keep checking it though. I am going to call the DR. in the am
and see what she says. I wouldn’t want to go low driving to NY!

Christine,,,drink skim milk. You should start to feel better but it
might now show up in just 15 minutes. It takes time for the complex
carbs to break down. I keep the decorating gel not icing with me. If I
start to drop badly I will squeeze it all inot my mouth. I have never
blacked out but the doc. told me that the gel 2 tubes would dissolve in
my mouth and bring me back if i go out. It should be placed between the
teeth and lip. It is safer than a lot of things because it will not
allow you to chock or dissolve to slowly. It is an idea. Becki
