Holy panic attack..

I had a pretty frightening experience this morning. I was up at 3am to get ready for work. I turned the shower on and as I stepped in and slid the door closed I started to feel really weird like I was going to pass out so I pushed some things off the seat in the shower and was going to sit down...next thing I know I come to on the shower floor wondering what just happened. I sat up and immediately started to vomit . . I called out for my girlfriend who rushed in to find me in a big mess on the floor.
Suffice to say she called 911 and with that I panicked. They came and checked me out and said my blood pressure and heart were fine but I should go on to hospital to be safe so off we went. After some blood work and a thorough check up they decided I was dehydrated and it was low blood sugar. Got some fluids and come home.
I have been sleeping most of the day and feel ok just a little rattled from all the excitement.
I work outside and I live in good old Arizona..where the heat will kill you so I need to be more diligent with my water intake and eat frequently during the day.
Anyway that was my freak out of the day..there's nothing like laying on your shower floor in all your glory with a bunch of paramedics staring at you! Ha..
Be well friends!!

The "low blood sugar" is what caught my eye.

You said, "a thorough check up they decided I was dehydrated and it was low blood sugar. Got some fluids and come home."

I've got diabetes, and can have "shaking attacks" as did my now deceased wife.

She figured it was low blood sugar. One time I was having one standing in the kitchen, and in addition to my body, my mind was closing down, and I knew I needed something to eat but I couldn't decide what, and I asked my wife, "What should I eat?" She suggested something and I got over the shaking attack.

My mother was once in, or near, a drug store, started having a "shaking attack," went to the candy counter and just started eating candy, for she knew she needed for her sugar level to get back up, and it worked.

A pest control person, quite thin, was once in our house and indicated she was getting dizzy and ask what she should do, and we suggested orange juice, which has fructose, or fruit sugar, and she drank it and was OK.

I think if your blood sugar gets too low, you can pass out if you don't get some sugar. I think if your blood sugar gets too high, you can have insulin shock and have a coma.

I've heard, always carry candy, in case you are away from food, and need to get your sugar up.

I heard of a case, a diabetic woman was driving down the interstate, got too busy with an upcoming event (her wedding, if you can imagine), not eating regularly, went into a shaking attack/black out, ran off the road and died.

So, I don't know if that's what you had, or not, but it sounds very similar to that to me. Have you ever had a shaking attack?

When you said you recovered with fluids, were the fluids like orange juice? Did you eat something to get you blood sugar up? Have you ever had such an event before?
