It’s #DiabetesWeek so let’s raise awareness on hypos ⬇️ People with #type1diabetes must treat their low blood sugar promptly before it gets too low or it could lead to unconsciousness and coma.
Glucose is the main source of fuel for the body and brain. You can’t function properly if you don’t have enough. #Low symptoms are dizziness, extreme hunger, headache, confusion, sweating, shaking, fast heartbeat, blurred vision, anxiety, inability, personality changes 😂😭😡
