[QUOTE="catapillar, post: 1590963, member: 32394"] Your brain needs glucose to function. If it doesn't have enough glucose, it's going to shut off the non essential functions so it can concentrate on keeping you breathing. If you notice these symptoms, stop reading and treat the hypo. I've not experienced the specific lack of cognitive function of inability to write/read that you've had. But I have had hypo glycaemic Hemiplegia (I was so hypo my brain could not figure out how to get the control messages to my right side, I found out by falling out of bed) and I have had quite a few occasions of very impaired vision when hypo (there's not enough glucose for the brain to be able to process the messages it's getting the eyes, so it puts its own wildly off the mark guess in instead).
