I am a volunteer at a museum conducting tours. Twice now I have had to seek help from colleagues as during my tour I became hot and sweaty and feel as if I'm having a hypo. Once I actually vomited I felt so ill. I've read much on this site and the answer seems to be that being overheated affects us in two ways - either it increases our blood sugar levels or lowers them with the same result, sweating profusely, nausea, dizziness and an inability to concentrate. How do I know which way I'm going up or down? Will I need to be carrying a test meter with me or is there a simple solution?
I may add that my blood glucose levels are normally excellent and have been stable for many years.
