Hypoglycemia unawareness. This is a condition in which people become insensitive to hypoglycemic symptoms, usually after experiencing severe episodes. It affects about 25% of those who use insulin. Even a single recent episode of hypoglycemia may make it more difficult to detect the next episode. With vigilant monitoring and by rigorously avoiding low blood glucose levels, such patients can often regain the ability to sense the symptoms. One 2001 study found that by temporarily letting up on glucose control and then tightening it again, diabetics could "reset" their awareness of hypoglycemic symptoms .
