General & Family Physician 's  Response
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

If you are diabetic and your blood sugar readings normally run high then even the reading is not significantly low, it may be lower than your body recognises.

This would cause the hypoglycemic symptoms that you experienced.

You should consider reviewing your medication with your doctor.

I hope this helps
