It can happen for several reasons, such
as, your diet, the amount of exercise or activity you have had or because of
the medications you take. Generally, when the blood sugar level drops to around
70 mg / dl, you will feel the symptoms of hypoglycemia. When the symptoms
occur, it is important to note the time at which it occurs, what you ate, what
activities you did that day and the amount of medication you took. It is also
important to consult your doctor, so that your doctor can adjust your
medication or tweak the amount of activity or direct you to a nutritionist, who
can help you with the right diet.
