not just an incident ....a complete loss of memory of what happened for a couple of hours ....he was feeling poorly in a casino and went to leave, on his way out the security asked him to leave as they said he looked as tho he had had enough to drink....he was then arrested and taken to the police station where he was breathalized twice and passed the breathalizers both times within a 2 hour interval...he was then too ill to be questioned for several hours .....hence the reason Im asking if it could have had anything to do with his type 2 diabetes ??Hba1c is a reading which represents the average blood sugar level for the last three months.
Your son cannot remember an incident? I know of no information on this. I assumed he was suffering a general loss of memory which is what diabetes and some pills reputedly do.
his bloods came back abnormal for the last 3 month test that they done ....that was done 2 weeks ago.not just an incident ....a complete loss of memory of what happened for a couple of hours ....he was feeling poorly in a casino and went to leave, on his way out the security asked him to leave as they said he looked as tho he had had enough to drink....he was then arrested and taken to the police station where he was breathalized twice and passed the breathalizers both times within a 2 hour interval...he was then too ill to be questioned for several hours .....hence the reason Im asking if it could have had anything to do with his type 2 diabetes ??
yes, the incident happened on 7th March and the bloods were done about 2 weeks ago, they came back abnormal...then the doctor offered him the tablets for type 2, my son asked if there was an alternative other than tablets and he was told he could try losing a bit f weight to see if that helped ? he also has tingling in hands and feet and chest pains...they gave him a spray for the chest pains....he is in custody so thats why I am so so worried about him.his bloods came back abnormal for the last 3 month test that they done ....that was done 2 weeks ago.
yes a lot of these symptoms apply to him....but can these symptoms happen if you are a type 2 and not 1 and on no medication at all ....they had to call a doctor in as he was confused...sweating and didnt realize where he was ...they asked if he had taken any drugs, which he hadnt,...they had to wait over 12 hours until he was capable of an iinterview, I have searched and searched and most of the findings are scholarly postings, which I dont understand, any help will be gratefully appreciated, Thanks for replying.It sounds a bit like a hypo. This can result in odd behaviour. Is that a possibility?
Do these symptoms sound familiar.

yes he is still in custody ...and all they told him was that his bloods were abnormal and he definately had diabetes type 2 .... he has known this for over a year before this happened, he still has terrible chest pains, the prison doctor said he is sending him to an outside hospital for tests but theses can take up to 3 months !!they never told him the results, he is still in custody .
