Re: [IPk] Re: bit of a daft question!



I too think it is paler / runnier when I am hypo - but this may be loss
of manual dexterity causing me to get blood all over the meter, wall,
keyboard, library books, etc.

Hmm... if high means, literally 'sticky', would this have an effect on
blood pressure???

Yours,
