Hypoglycemia - What happens during a hypo? (Symptoms)


Some of the hypo symptoms are:
a. paleness
b. shaking
c. perspiration
d. feeling weak
e. rapid heartbeat
f. hunger
g. agitation
h. difficulty to concentrate
i. fatigue
j. blurred vision
k. irritability
l. confusion
m. convulsions
n. temporary loss of consciousness
o. coma


Most people do get some warning signs that hypo is happening. But for some, hypo may cause few or none of the milder symptoms before the start of sudden unconsciousness or convulsions, especially if you've had diabetes for years. What this means is that loss of consciousness can occur without warning.
