The second meal/food after hypoglycemia
Hi. So I was reading about hypoglycemia treatment whole past night, staring at a flatlining Dexcom. I've read what a T1 person should eat glucose immediately to start getting back, and my question is what to eat after that, at what interval, with out without insulin? I read in some old topic here that it should be sandwiches, pasta, rice etc. But outside of bread it requires cooking time, how do you deal with that? And how much bread is ok?
I've given a hypoglycemic relative sweets and sugary water and a small ham sandwich in that order and it almost didn't register for like 2-3 hours, and then after another round of fast sugars closer to morning, blood sugar rapidly spiked from 50-ish to almost 400 in a span of an hour and then I had to give fast insulin shot to stop that. By morning she's ok, but this night was crap. Any advice for such unexpected events? (I have one GlucaGen and didn't use it)
