Specializes in Family Medicine

See below: Frightened? Anxious? Diabetic? Low blood sugar? Really need more info to offer any suggestions other than see pcp or er doc if condition worsens, i.e., feel faint or dizzy. Do not try to drive self; if stable, have another drive; if not sure, call for ambulance.
