what do you do when going hypo?

[Crazymank]

today i had a pretty bad case. I had to sit down and had the wife grab me some oj. I thought if i tried walking to the fridge i would pass out. It was that bad....

So after a couple cups of oj and a couple chocolate granola bars i felt ok. But i was wondering if you guys have anything specific???

whats your IU's up too? Thats the reason ill never run it man too scary for me. Glad your wife was home be safe with that stuff man. Buy a couple bottles of glucose tabs at walgreens. They are faster then anything pretty much. Carry about 8 around in a plastic bag with you ALL THE TIME!!! That way you are always prepared.

shit... i forgot about those. Will do!!!

Yeah, I started to feel it a little bit and i was like ok, this is manageable. But i should sit down.... so i sat down and it hit me like a ton of bricks... started sweating like a whore in church and got all dizzy.

I dont think im doing a lot, only 3ius... but i did test base like a dumb ass today. Test base alone makes me hypo.

thats probably what it was those two combined with a lower carb diet will do it for sure.

yeah... that damn test base. I love the shit cause 2 hours later im ready to rock with my cock out, but man it fucks up my bp and makes me hypo.

Yes, get the glucose tabs! I have some with me at all times.

how would test base affect your blood sugar levels?

 

[saudades]

Actually all test will affect blood sugar levels to some degree though it is different with each individual. It's something that most bb'ers don't know or just don't remember. I'm not sure how it does it, but the insert on test cyp from Upjohn says it does.

same here Sauds i dont get it near as bad as you but i always have 4 or 5 in my gymbag and in every car i drive i have some in the console just in case. Lately since going back on cycle about an hour after my workout just as im about to have my real post workout meal i start getting just a tad hypo nothing bad but just enough to notice. I pop a ciouple pixie stix and hammer down my meal and im good to go.

You aren't still low carbing with insulin are you? My wife carries the tabs all the time and they work. Oj is pretty fast too. I really feel like you are going to struggle if you are trying to keep the simple carbs low though bro. If you aren't carb restricting just drink oj before you take the slin.

 

[The Deuce]

I was once told that to never stick an IU of Insulin in you without a whole case of Glucose tabs on hands...

even though i felt better last night. I had another hypoglycemic attack while at work. It wasnt really bad, but the lights at the club where making me feel light headed. I had to leave and run next door to get something to eat. Drank it down with a coke.... That made me feel a little bit better but not 100%
