A member asked:

At which blood glucose level for hypo/hyperglycemia does breathlessness occur?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It doesn't: This is not a reliable sign of either. You need to trust your glucose meter or other means of following your illness. This is critical for your safety. Best wishes.
