Dear madam i can understand your concern.
i am very sorry for your present condition.
kindly make sure that its low sugar by checking with glucometer.
levels below 70mgldl or 4mmol/l is considered as low sugar.
in my opinion you might be suffering from hypoglycemia(low sugar).
there are two possibility which might have lead to this condition.
1.the dose of insulin might be little more than required dose.
2.skipping of meals or too little food taken on night.
small snack with milk will correct your low sugars.
i suggest to see your doc and readjust the dose
regards
