Brief Answer:
Needs tests

Detailed Answer:
Hi
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your message.
I think I can help you.
First, there are few causes of hypoglycemia in absence of diabetes.
I will need you to take some tests-
insulin levels
urine routine
liver and kidney function tests
total leucocyte count
culture of blood and urine.
You can take the tests one by one.
You need not take them all together.
If there is any other symptom you will need to let me know.
Best of luck

Brief Answer:
Call lab or admit to hospital

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I would suggest admission.
If that's not possible, you can ask the people from lab to collect samples from home.
Most decent labs do have home collection facility.
I hope that the information helps.
Best of luck. Dr Mittal
