Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I visited an orthopedic doctor a week ago and gotten two steroids shots, one in my knee, moments after receiving the shot I begin to tremble, this went on for about 15 to 20 min. I was given a piece of chocolate and immediately stop and was fine. He stated I might be hypoglycemia. What can I do to help myself?
Dear , hypoglycemia is very much common duribg fast orin stressful conditions. It may appear in diabetic patients taking treatment. It may appear in central causes. Though single episode iis not to be worried off but if it continues than u may have to visit a physician for further investigation. For immediate treatment u can have 2 tsf of glucose powder immediately. Any sugar product will help. Thanks. Wish u a healthy life ahead.
