I've had the same thing happen to me a bunch of times. The first time it happened was terrifying. I woke up freezing and unable to control my body/movements. I remember screaming, both from fear and from the cold. I've been told that many people get cold when they've dropped very low and then their BG begins to rise again. I had boxes of juice on the table by my bed and when I was able to think about them, I found that I couldn't get them since my arms would fly in all directions if I attempted to move them. I was able to finally grab hold of one and gnawed a hole in one corner but most of the juice went everywhere except my mouth. I'm not sure how long I lay in bed but I finally tried to get up, and fell on the floor (seriously banging my arm up on the way down). Laying on a wood floor was even worse than being in bed. I also landed in front of the door, which open into the room, so I couldn't get out. After what seemed like an eternity I was able to wiggle around and pry the door open, and I crawled into the living room. A blanket had come off the bed with me when I fell and I was able to get that over me a bit on the living room floor. Eventually I found that I could control my arms, and I crawled to the couch for awhile. When I finally got up and went to the kitchen, my BG was in the 50's, so I can only imagine just how low it had gone.

You're lucky that you were able to make it to your neighbors. I was screaming at the top of my lungs (just screams, not any real words) and if I had been getting murdered, my neighbors would just ignore it.

All of my seizures like that happened while I was taking NPH. I lost my hypo awareness maybe 6-7 years ago. Before, I would have woken up before my BG ever got that low.
