Overview
Hypoglycemic symptoms and manifestations can be divided into those produced by the counterregulatory hormones: adrenergic Manifestations: anxiety, nervousness, tremor, Palpitations, Sweating, coldness. Glucagon Manifestations: Hunger, nausea, vomiting. Neuroglycopenic Manifestations: irritability, weakness, apathy, lethargy Confusion, amnesia.
History and symptoms
- Hypoglycemic symptoms and manifestations can be divided into those produced by the counterregulatory hormones (adrenaline and glucagon) triggered by the falling glucose and the neuroglycopenic effects produced by the reduced brain sugar.
- The attacks may occur in the fasting or postprandial state.
- Because of hypoglycemia unawareness, patients can't correct hypoglycemia themselves and need help from the observer.
Common symptoms:
Adrenergic Manifestations [1][2]
- Anxiety, nervousness, tremor
- Palpitations
- Sweating
- Coldness
- Clamminess
Glucagon Manifestations
Less common symptoms:
Neuroglycopenic Manifestations [3][4]
- Nonspecific dysphoria, anxiety, moodiness, depression, crying
- Negativism
- Irritability
- Fatigue, weakness, apathy, lethargy, daydreaming, sleep
- Confusion, amnesia, dizziness, delirium
- Blurred vision, double vision
- Difficulty speaking
- Slurred speech
- Paresthesias
- Headache
- Stupor
- Generalized or focal seizures
