When you have hypoglycemia (low blood glucose) your symptoms may seem similar to someone who have skipped a meal or fasting and if you drink alcohol while starving. Hypoglycemia can be managed or controlled by eating or drinking something sugary. If it patient doesn't get this control he/she may appear confused with garbled speech which you may not understand what he/she is saying. In extreme can become unconscious .following are symptoms that you look for:
-feeling shaky and irritable,
-sweating,
