Patient's question:
Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has become problematic. Now I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. What is the low blood sugar indicator?Doctor's answer:
For patients with diabetes, the diagnostic criteria for hypoglycemia are that blood sugar levels exceed 3.9 millimoles per liter, which can confirm the diagnosis. If the insulin dosage is too high or there is a prolonged lack of bowel movements, symptoms of hypoglycemia may reappear. When experiencing dizziness, fatigue, sweating, hunger, irritability, or panic upon getting up in the morning, it is essential to promptly monitor blood sugar levels to prevent a potentially irreversible outcome due to hypoglycemia.
