What causes hypoglycaemia?
• paleness • shaking • perspiration • a feeling of weakness • rapid heartbeat • hunger • agitation • difficulty concentrating • irritability • fatigue • blurred vision • temporary loss of consciousness • confusion • convulsions • coma. Most people do get some warning that hypoglycaemia is happening. But for some, hypoglycaemia may cause few or none of the warning symptoms before the start of sudden unconsciousness or convulsions – particularly if you’ve had diabetes for many years.
