A member asked:

How can i tell the difference between shakiness from low blood sugar and from neuropathy in legs?

Low sugar: Is potentially dangerous and life threatning, also may be associated with excessive sweating( di aphorisms), shakiness and confusion. Diabetic neuropathy does not give you sweating and usually not shakiness ,but unsteadiness if for eg it involves your lower extremities.

Another thought...: ...about shakiness is that if you feel the symptom and your blood sugar is normal, then you know low blood sugar is not the cause. Sometimes keeping a symptom diary helps us determine these connections.
