8. Symptoms: Collapse

This may happen when the blood glucose falls to critically low levels. In people with long-standing diabetes, there may be no warning of impending collapse, as they may not have experienced any of the other earlier symptoms. If the collapsed person is semi-conscious or unresponsive, they require urgent medical attention. When correct treatment is provided promptly, there are usually no long-term problems.
