A member asked:
Is it normal to wake up feeling sick, sweaty, nauseas from low blood sugar if you don't eat enough the night before? alcohol makes it worse.

No.: If you have diabetes, your insulin needs adjusting. How do you know your blood sugar is low? Did you check it? If yes, and it is indeed low, then you need to go down on your long-acting insulin. Otherwise, it must be related to something else. It could be hangover if its worse with drinking!
