Fear of hypoglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes: The role of interoceptive accuracy and prior episodes of hypoglycemia

Our findings suggest a positive association of low IA in combination with prior episodes of hypoglycemia and FoH in patients with T2DM. The results are in line with recent findings on IA in patients with chronic somatic symptom distress more generally and contribute to our understanding of the relations between interoception, body related fears, and physical symptom perception.
