Brief Answer:
Probably caused by low sugar!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about what you experienced this morning. From all the information you have provided, this was probably caused by low blood sugar. It is always important to make out time and eat as sugar is very important for the body systems.

There is no reason to get bothered by this. Once low blood sugar corrected(like eating, etc), you run no further risk of having complications resulting from this.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
