A 40-year old man with a history of type 1 diabetes attends his diabetes review. He mentions that on several occasions when he’s done a finger prick test, his blood sugar levels have been around 2-3 mmol/L, however, he does not feel the hypo symptoms like he used to, such as tingling or feeling weak.
