Should I be worried I didn’t feel anything to warn me my bg was this low?

I don’t understand

Quick question, I was told a a few months back that I would need some form of letter of my gp for when I go on holiday for my insulin and such. I phoned my gp up today and the receptionist had no clue, I was expecting a call back of a doctor which I didn’t receive. Anybody shed some light on this.

So apparently it can be common for diabetics to get this, there's always something new. Blood test for leg pains and a possible circumcision. Never a dull moment with this :)
