Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. It appears you are having hypoglycemic episodes possibly due to medications. Any recent medication along with anti-diabetic drugs maybe cross reacting.
2. Need to reduce dosage of anti-diabetic drugs. Check HbA1C and fasting blood sugar to know about glucose control. Based on glucose control, dosage can be titrated.
3. Do check for blood pressure also. Slurred speech and headache are not good, meet your doctor to evaluate for any neurological episodes.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
