Hypoglycemia: Too low a level of glucose (sugar) in the blood. A person with hypoglycemia may feel nervous, shaky, weak or sweaty, and have a headache, blurred vision and hunger. Taking small amounts of sugar, sweet juice, or food with sugar will usually help the person feel better within 10 to 15 minutes. It is also thought to contribute to premenstrual syndrome (PMS).
