The Low Blood Sugar Rebound Nobody Warns You About

from Your Best T1D Year · host Neil Greathouse

Show NotesIf you’ve ever gone from a low blood sugar straight into the 200s and thought, “How did that happen?”, this episode connects the dots.We talk about the post-low rebound that sneaks up on people with type 1 diabetes, not because they did something reckless, but because panic treatment feels necessary in the moment. This episode breaks down why lows often lead to highs, how stacking food during a low fuels the rebound, and why it feels so hard to stop once you start eating.This is about understanding the pattern, not blaming yourself for it. Once you see what’s happening, you can start treating lows in a way that keeps the rest of your day from getting hijacked.What You Can Do TodayLook at one recent low that ended in a big high. Notice how much you treated and how fast you ate it. Ask yourself, “What would a calmer version of that treatment have looked like?”Awareness comes first. Change comes second. ResourcesHelpful resources and newsletter: https://yourbestt1dyear.comSponsor ConnectBlue Circle Health offers free coaching and care that fits real life for adults with type 1 diabetes.
