what uncommon symptoms can be attributed to hypoglycemia?

0

Not sure about uncommon, but typically not everyone has the same symptoms of hypoglycemia, the way to think of it is almost like drowning. Your brain needs two things to function, oxygen and glucose. some symptoms are as follows: confusion, vision/sound disturbances, erratic/odd behavior, passing out, coma, shaking, breathing problems, unresponsiveness. sometimes a person with very low sugar, or sometimes with very high sugar (but usually low) can be mistaken for someone that is intoxicated. During my EMT training they made it very clear that even if it looks like alcohol/drugs it may not be (like if you get a call because someone in a bar passes out) don’t just assume they are under the influence, also suspect blood sugar, and other causes as well.
