Hi
@Jaysmum Just to give you a few indicators in my experience of both too high sugar levels and too low.
Too high can cause:Blurred vision, diarrhoea, ketosis (where it feels as though your muscles are generally locking up, breathing is shallow, breath smells of nail polish remover) lethargy, nausea, feeling antisocial and bad tempered, frequent weeing, unexpected runny nose, unquenchable thirst and extreme tiredness.
Too low can cause:behaving like a drunk, auras, inability to make choices and decisions, depression, bursting into tears for no logical reason, very shaky hands, acute headache, slowed or slurred speech, vague staring, violent or agressive reactions when someone is trying to administer some form of glucose or to do a test, and exccessive yawning.
Looked at as a list can be very alarming, but some of these may rarely, if ever appear. We are all different. In my worst hypo I was unconscious for at least 7 hours and in another I had an epileptic fit, even though I have never been diagnosed with epilepsy. Never feel ashamed to call for help - that is what we all pay for!
