I found this article on Hypoglycaemia quite interesting. Even if we may not agree with parts of it, it provides good insights into this complication.

I found the article particularly interesting in that it said that as each hypoglycemic episode, the body becomes slower in counter regulatory response.  I have been finding that out lately because it takes me much longer to recover from a 'low' than it used to which is a bit discouraging and sometimes inconvenient.
