So i am wearing a dexcom blood sugar monitor.  now this is pretty neat.  it is a little computer on my right side.  it felt like a staple put into my stomach when she placed it . it comes with a monitor that i can see what my blood sugars every 15 minutes.

 

the first night my blood sugars dropped to 60 or below all night long and it went off form 2:30 am on.  no sleep.  2nd night blood sugars dropped and i put it in the bathroom so that i could sleep. 

so evidently my blood sugars are dropping every night to 60 or below.  now i do not feel symptoms until they bottom out at below 60. 

so from what i can see my blood sugars rise when i eat and then most of the time suddenly drop.  not like a steady drop but a sudden down slide. 

they bottomed out after going to the gym also.  can't wait to see what the dr says.

Please keep us posted. I know that adding fat and eliminating most carbs works for me. I also make sure I eat some food just before bed (nuts cheese - mostly proteins and fat.. )
Good luck.
