Mokiza replied to Mokiza's discussion 'Effect of Hypo on pulse rate'"Thank you for your observation. I have failed to mention that pulse goes high on reaching extreem stage of hypo - and not when we are assending towards hypo.
So such a device cannot be an early warning."
Mokiza replied to Mokiza's discussion 'Effect of Hypo on pulse rate'"Now I recollect that I had have many hypos but severe ones were only on thee occasions when I lot control on my control. Pulse may be triggering only on
reaching such extreem only.
Thank you indded"
Mokiza replied to Mokiza's discussion 'Effect of Hypo on pulse rate'"Your comment and observation is wise and appealing thank you"
Brian (bsc) replied to Mokiza's discussion 'Effect of Hypo on pulse rate'"Raised pulse rate would be expected to be common with a harsh hypo (one that triggers a rebound or counterregulation). Your body releases cortisol which raises your heart rate. Perfectly normal.
But while it would work, it is a "lagging"…"
acidrock23 replied to Mokiza's discussion 'Effect of Hypo on pulse rate'"I don't think that HR is viewed as relible because there are many factors that can influence HR to elevate.

Holger Schmeken replied to Mokiza's discussion 'Effect of Hypo on pulse rate'"The more lows diabetics experience the more they get used to lows. It is not that scary anymore and the brain has learned to cope with the situation (until you are far too low). Thus the secretion of adrenalin will be less pronounced with the years.…"
guitarnut replied to Mokiza's discussion 'Effect of Hypo on pulse rate'"I've never heard of such a device, and I've heard of some weird ones for diabetes. (There's one that's a tattoo that changes color based on blood sugar patterns. There's another that "reads" blood sugar through the…"

I observed that my pulse rate had shot to 120 (my normal pulse rate is around 70 when I have normal sugar levels,If a wrist alarm can be fabricated which gives an alarm when the pulserate crosses a pre-determined level - will it be helpful gadget to diabetics?

- Mokiza,
For the beginner there is only revolt,against something so enveloping and life long, it's a hard thing to grasp. There is always denial and I lived in denial of 1000 things in my life before I finally accepted reality and decided to live with them. Diabetes was never one of them because I was type 1 when I was 4 years old so never knew what normal was. That was 1959. I know I was lucky in that regard.
I comes down to live and die, a choice I make weekly with ultradian bipolar. Believe me, diabetes is so bloody easy.

- Mokia,
Thank you for your kind words. I have indeed been blessed by the Goddesses who have provided exactly what I needed to survive. I very nearly died 100 times in the 80s on synthetics. I am now very healthy using pork and totally expect to outlive all my healthy friends ha ha!!!!
I am retired as well at 45 because of ultradian bipolar. Lets have fun ha ha!!! I am a true Luddite and design vacuum tube pre-amps for guitar players. Everything I do, including insulin is from the 1920s ha ha!!!! Long live the past where people knew how to do it right.

- Mokiza,
I have been type 1 for 51 years, since 1959, have no complications. I am different from most in that I don't count carbs but use the exchange system, use the same species of animal insulin I did in the 50s and 60s, 2 shots a day, and saw my last endo in 1969. Over the decades I have figured out what works and what does not and am an experimenter at heart. I am always eager to tell my stories or learn from others so feel free to contact me anytime.
