Hypoglycemia (Low Blood Sugar)

Signs of Hypoglycemia:

**Cold sweat, faintness, dizziness **Headache **Pounding of heart, trembling, nervousness **blurred vision **hunger **Irritability **Personality Change **Not able to awaken

Now you can also have problems driving if your blood sugar is over 200 mg/dl. My father got in an accident because his blood sugar was over 200, he was becoming confused and at the same time had a Urinary Tract Infection. The police officer told me that a diabetic's license can be revoked if an accident is caused by diabetes. I don't know if that is true but why risk losing your license altogether if this is the case.

If you were going to be driving for any sort of extended time, every so often find an appropriate place to pull across and retest your blood. When it comes to driving: if in doubt, check out your blood sugar & eat.
