> To reiterate, I take zero boluses when I’m on the keto diet.

I'm very surprised by this and would love to hear what you eat while doing keto. I'm T1 but still have to bolus when doing keto, even when doing zero carb and fasting for 18+ hours a day. I only need between 1 and 3 units but there's rarely an occasion when I don't need to bolus at all.

The issue my endo has is that my BG is much lower than he would like. I've heard the phrase "too well controlled" so many times and it irritates me no end. His concern is that I'll lose awareness of low BG, and can't comprehend how I'm able to function as usual even when my BG is ~2.5 mmol/l (to clarify - I don't aim to run that low; my target range is 4-6).

The brain uses ketones as fuel, so you will find that hypoglycemia is easily tolerated.

In ketosis, your brain will have plenty of fuel, even if your blood glucose drops too low.
