Diabetes Homeopathy Treatment discusses diabetic hypoglycemia, a low blood glucose level that occurs in people with diabetes mellitus. It is one of the most common types of hypoglycemia seen in emergency rooms. According to a 2004-2005 study, an estimated 55,819 cases involved insulin. Hypoglycemia occurs when diabetes treatment inaccurately matches the body's needs, causing glucose levels to fall below normal. It can be mild and reversed with eating carbohydrates, or it can be severe enough to cause unconsciousness requiring intravenous treatment or glucagon injections.
