Hypo!

[Catherine Davis 36]

I'm on day 3 of the pre-op diet and I just had a hypo ????. I'm using less insulin as directed, but obviously it is still too much. The only thing I had to hand was a nut/muesli bar. I had to eat it to stop myself passing out, but it feels like I cheated ????. What is worse though is that I am at work, an hour from home, and I am supposed to leave in an hour so I am there when my kids get home from school. But I'm not sure I will be able to drive by then ????. Tried ringing my husband, but his team went to a restaurant for lunch and he won't answer his phone. Feeling guilty I ate when I wasn't supposed to, and I don't know how to get home ????

@@Catherine Davis Don't feel guilty, eat before you cause any harm to yourself or others (driving) Maybe you should call your surgeon and see what can be modified, I know quit a few people don't even have to do a pre-op stage at all so it's kind of a surgeons preference. I'm sure he/she would rather you eat something that have something bad happen. Don't stress! If you had called him/her right that instant it was happening they would have told you to eat.....
