Hi noted, that you have taken slightly higher dose of insulin than prescribed?
Can get Low sugar thats all
nothing to worry
Check bed time blood Sugars.. if sugars less than 100, give some protein drink with Sugar
Repeat 2 am to 3am sugars, if less than 80.. give some milk or something to eat
That will reduce panicing re Low sugars...
