HUN call 911. get someone out there. this is something not to play with. 31 is low no matter if you are raising it. Something is wrong. Don't wait for a doc. Get help now.

Im not a diabetic that's the thing, i found out i had low sugar levels by accident.I do understand what you are saying .The doctor called finally he said i have to go in and see him in the morning.He also said to eat 5 to 6 small meals and no candy .He said also to eat cheese inbetween meals.When my husband gets home im going to go to the ER i think, but if it drops down that low again i will call 911.Im one of those ladies who fills like there is nothing wrong, i think its hard for me to excpet when there is.I know i will walk into the er and my levels will be perfect, im going to take the machine so they can see the reading.Im just going to relax and munch on crackers for the moment.

He said that it's very low and should not be that low. He said to eat 5 to 6 small meals a day and cheese in between meals. I have to see him tomorrow, so is this o.k. as im not a diabetic. Do no Diabetics get sugar levels that low and are o.k? My husband is the Diabetic, his levels are always very high. The other day he said lets test you, he said i would be high and that’s when we found out it was low and we have just kept a eye on mine but its been going down im very confused as to if i should be worried or not, i know i don’t like the feeling I get when it gets low like that.

....But if their sugar's are both that low, then they

both need food or something sweet to bring their

sugar levels back up. My Hubby has Hypo. And I

also know if my sugar-levels are extremely low I

can't even stomach something solid. I need some-

thing FAST.

lol I really don't know about diabetics. but if the sugar level goes down low in either case you need to eat to get it back up.

Your hubbie has Hypo is he a diabetic. Sorry if I made you all misunderstand and think that I was a diabetic. I did post on one of my message that I was not a diabetic but the post came back so fast to me that I think that part was forgotten about sorry if I made anyone panic for no reason, but I can tell you on this end it was very scarry.The way I was feeling was not good. I did post on another board first but got no response, I hope this was not the wrong board. If so I do apologies
