yeah i take metformin and glipizide..i was told to take 1000 m met and 20
glipi twice a day and was going as low as 38 by the time i tested.
I currently am reduced to 500 met once a day and 5 mg glipi or less a day
depending on how my body is reacting.
When i was taking the big amount i was having days where i was lucky to get
to 70 no matter what i ate..it was scary.
Now im always between 80-100 with a occasional 120 after meals..which where
i feel the best.

Exactly. The danger of getting onto a reactive hypoglycemia roller
coaster is a real danger for non-insulin using T2 who still have good
second phase insulin responses left, and one that doesn't exist for
insulin users. Whereas insulin users have to avoid the risk of serious
medical emergency lows, a danger that doesn't exist for many
non-insulin using T2s. Quite different dangers, with quite different
appropriate remedies to avoid them.

It's not just injected insulin; a lot of T2s take pancreas-stimulating
medications also. Then a hypo can be just as serious... your body doesn't
distinguish between homemade insulin vs. the injected stuff.
