How long does it take to heal episodes of hypoglycemia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: A single episode of hypoglycemia, related to an Insulin overdose in a type 1 diabetic can be treated and resolved in 5 to 10 minutes, (turn off your pump for 5 minutes, intake 5 gm oral glucose). However, multiple episodes, unknown cause of episodes can be much more difficult and involved to treat. Please check in with your doc, as hypoglycemia can be serious health risk. Be well.
