5 Symptoms of Hypoglycemia Bodily Reactions Sweating Racing pulse Shaking Hunger Headaches Pale skin Cognitive/Behavioral Changes Confusion Behavioral changes Slurred speech Anxious Visual disturbances (blurred vision) Dizziness Seizures Poor coordination and concentration Coma and death

11 What is hypoglycemia unawareness? Who is at risk? When a person does not feel the symptoms of low blood sugar Blood sugar level falls below 70 mg/dl and feel no symptoms Do not know that treatment is needed Higher risk for hypoglycemia unawareness: Increased age Frequent episodes of hypoglycemia Type 1 diabetes Have had diabetes for a long time Complications with diabetes: Damage to nerves Taking medications, such as beta blockers, can hide the symptoms Must monitor blood glucose frequently Consider wearing a medical alert band
12 Medications What causes hypoglycemia? Sulfonylureas: glyburide (DiaBeta), glimepiride (Amaryl), glipizide (Glucotrol) Insulin: Dose, timing, and type Dosing inaccuracies Risk of hypoglycemia with different types of insulin: Insulin degludec (Tresiba) & insulin glargine U300 (Toujeo) Less than Insulin detemir (Levemir) & insulin glargine U100 (Lantus) Less than NPH (Humulin N) Others: meglitinides (Prandin, Starlix), beta blockers (Tenormin), ACEinhibitors (Lotensin, Vasotec), and more
13 What causes hypoglycemia? Continued Meals Not eating, eating less, delaying a meal, or skipping meals, not enough carbohydrates Illness Liver or kidney disease, hospitalization, anorexia, or cold/flu Alcohol use Exercise: intensity, duration, timing Excessive stress

Risk Factors Medications (insulin, sulfonylureas) Older age Number of years with diabetes Multiple health conditions History of coronary heart disease Kidney or liver disease Pregnancy Erratic eating habits (skipping or infrequent meals) Special conditions Gastric bypass Heart transplant
15 What are the consequences of hypoglycemia? What can happen if I do not treat my low blood sugar? Loss of consciousness, brain damage, or death Cardiac arrest, heart arrhythmia More difficult to control diabetes Hypoglycemia unawareness Poor quality of life Can make it harder to take your medications on schedule
16 Patient Story: Mrs. Jones 46-year-old with type 2 diabetes for 7 years History of high blood pressure and asthma Medications for diabetes Metformin 1000 mg twice daily Humulin 70/30, 30 units twice daily Experiencing low blood sugar at night Wakes up every night confused and with her sheets soaked in sweat How do you think she is feeling?
17 Patient Story What is happening? Low blood sugar during bedtime What could be the cause? Timing of insulin doses Injection 1: 6am when she wakes up Injection 2: 11pm when she goes to sleep
18 Patient Story Continued What can be done? Change the timing of the injection! Insulin Humulin 70/30 must be injected minutes before breakfast and minutes before dinner Change to a different insulin Risk of hypoglycemia with different types of insulin: Insulin degludec (Tresiba) & insulin glargine U300 (Toujeo) Less than Insulin detemir (Levemir) & insulin glargine U100 (Lantus) Less than NPH (Humulin N) No more low sugars during sleep!
19 Summary Hypoglycemia is the most immediate danger with diabetes Defined by blood sugar less than 70mg/dL Symptoms include: Shaking, sweating, fast heartbeat, anxiety, dizziness, hunger, irritability, headache, impaired vision, confusion, fatigue/weakness, confusion, and loss of consciousness There are multiple risk factors and causes, of which, many of the causes can be prevented.
