My BG has dropped to 120 [from 200] - I didn’t expect that. Now I have a headache, perhaps as a result of that big drop. Do you ever experience that or other symptoms when your BG is dropping?

When my BG drops very fast, I feel low even if I am still too high. I may feel low even at 120 or sometimes 150, when I drop fast from a high hormone peak. But I don’t get headaches when I am low.

Sometimes I have that too. It’s really weird to feel my body basically telling me to eat sugar even though I don’t need it. I find it hard to resist that temptation 😃

I get a headache and nausea from dropping or rising too fast, and if I’m dropping, I feel like I need to eat, too.

Low, carb overcorrection, insulin overcorrection, hopefully I hit it it this time.

I’m tired, to say the least.
