Hypoglycemia is a complication, which is extremely common and maybe seen in either Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes. It is a common side effect of treatment with insulin or sulfonylurea. It is usually precipitated by inadequate food intake or by excessive exercise. The signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia include sweating, palpitations, tremor and later on confusion, behavioral changes and finally coma. These symptoms are individualized and maybe different for different individuals. Hypoglycemia can cause seizures, strokes and thus neurological deficits. Hence, it should be treated immediately with oral glucose, which maybe in the form of a fruit juice, a soft drink or glucose powder in water. If the patient is unable to swallow, intravenous glucose maybe required. Good luck!

The bestadvise that I can offer would be to moniter the BSL prior to bed and adjust the insullin dosage accordingly. I would still suggest that until u balance out the morning hypo by making the neccasary insullin changes to eat carbohydrates such as glass of milkor a bowl of cereal or toast. as this will give the insulln somthing to work on over night. I do not recomend fast actng sugar lik orange juice of any form of sweet as this does not last as long against the insullin. even drop the insullin dosage by 5ml in the evening. Hypos are very dangerous and they can be very hard to wake from and as she is possibly an older lady I would deffinatly be doing something immediatly to control this.

i wish he recovers soon
