What is a hypoglycemic seizure like?

Answer by  MedStudent01 (1131)

A hypoglycemic seizure is caused by low blood sugar. Conditions begin first with lethargy, sluggishness, and altered mental status, and may proceed to seizure if not treated promptly. Symptoms may vary, from an appearance to daydreaming, to alternating contracting and relaxing movement of the arms and legs. Most seizures are not intense as those shown on TV.
