I have said a lot of things to people and when my blood sugars are normal they are like mad at me cause apparently I say rude things about them that I don't know what i'm saying.
Have I ever said anything mean during a low???
All I can say is, "My poor husband" *grin*
im kind off new to diabetes but i do get low often ( probably because i have stopped eating most of the foods i used to eat all the time) and when i do i get dizzy and disoriented and cant speak right , my friends can always tell because whatever i say when im low makes no sense whatsoever . but for some reason i can still think straight and always correct my levels myself, lets hope it stays that way!
This is an interesting forum topic!
I've been type 1 for twelve years, and my symptoms have always been the same as yours, Jacob. I continue to think pretty clearly, I'm just quieter than usual and I say things that don't make a lot of sense. I usually notice the low pretty quickly (I'm really sensitive to blood sugar fluctuations) and locate the nearest source of sweetness.
I'm thinking I should warn my friends that moodiness is a symptom though, just in case I ever have a freak out!
i'm in college, and just recently went back to see my high school teachers, and i was talking to my history teacher. I just started crying. I was so embarrassed, and didn't know what i was crying about... but i tested and was in the 50s. I felt like an idiot.
I usually just get really confused. Yesterday I was grocery shopping (i seem to be low every time i go grocery shopping) and stood in the cracker aisle, looking at the same two shelves for graham crackers for fifteen minutes. Finally, i realized i was being crazy, and that the crackers were not just going to appear, so i tested and was low... but also, why would you keep the graham crackers on the cookie aisle!? They're CRACKERS.

Sometimes I cry when I'm low. It's really embarrasing when I'm at work. Luckily I haven't gotten caught crying in my cubicle yet. Lol.
when i was little, my mom was doing a 2am check...i told her that i was a piece of pop corn, and begged her not to eat me...I was 8 years old...(pop corn's my favorite snack). When I was a Junior in highschool, I all of a sudden went really low, i was unable to speak to my professor, and next thing i knew i had two of my friends carrying me through the quad to the nurses office, where I proceeded to tell her all about the long lost love i was hopeless for...having 6-8 glucose tabs, and coming up rather quickly, recalling all that i had said, i was in quite the pickle, the nurse knew what was up, but boy did life have some lessons!
