A member asked:
Some poster asked about hypoglycemia and a seizure. is that related to a certain hypoglycemic event or can it be more random? such as a lower number for hypoglycemia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hypoglycemic seizure: Seizures that occur due to low blood sugar generally are due to a shift in fluids, sodium and potassium in and out of your brain cells due to the change in sugar levels. like most symptoms of low blood sugar they tend to happen when blood sugar drops below 60-50, though this may vary by individual. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/diabetic-hypoglycemia/symptoms-causes/syc-20371525
