The home health nurse is assessing a type 1 diabetic patient who has been contro

The home health nurse is assessing a type 1 diabetic patient who has been controlled for 6 months. The nurse is surprised and concerned about a blood glucose reading of 52. This episode of hypoglycemia is probably caused by the patient’s having:
1.   taken a new form of birth control pill this morning.
2.   used large amounts of sugar substitute in her tea this morning.
3.   had a 2-hour long exercise class at the spa this morning.
4.   underdosed herself with insulin this morning.

This is for my medical nursing class
