Hypoglycemia

diabetes.about.com — “Hypoglycemia is also known as low blood sugar. It happens when your blood sugar level drops too low. It happens more often with Type 1 diabetes, but it can happen with Type 2, if your medication is too potent or if you've been exercising a lot. Not enough sugar in your blood means that your cells don't have enough glucose for energy. You might feel nervous or shaky, dizzy or lightheaded, sleepy or hungry. You may be confused, sweaty, or have difficulty speaking or walking.View full resource at diabetes.about.com
