Because diabetes patients need to control their blood sugar, hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) can happen to any diabetes patients at any time, especially those who need to control blood sugar strictly or those whose blood sugar level varies greatly. During the onset of low blood sugar, patients develop symptoms of sympathetic nerve and central nervous system disorders, such as heart palpitations, cold sweats, chills, hunger, headache, irritability, skin paleness, unresponsiveness, trance, and even loss of consciousness. Hypoglycemia is a serious complication of diabetes. It may lead to the death.
