Why Did I Experience Unconsciousness and Rapid Heartbeat After Drinking Water as a Type 1 Diabetic?

Hello doctor Name:- Anshika Age:- 18 yrs 3 months Sex:- Female Medical Problem:- .I am a type 1 Diabetic, Morning I took 10u of Novarapid and had breakfast. After giving my practical exams which was of 2 Hours, In Afternoon I was walking to the station, I was extremely thirsty so I got buttermilk, after reaching the station and when the train boarded, I was still feeling thirsty, I checked my Sugars it were 250 so I took 15U of Novarapid because I wanted to eat food as well. After reaching to my destination that was just 15 mins, I bought Cold water, after having it, i felt a little discomfort in chest. I was walking on the bridge to the metro and suddenly I started feeling Unconscious, My sugars were not low because I took insulin 5-6 mins ago. I had a rapid heart beat, My hands were shaking, I was scared, I was dizzy and wanted to sit down, I had a feeling of passing out. ECG was done. Blood pressure was high that was 150/80 mm hg but later it got normal. The doctor was about to give me some injection to lower blood pressure but later didn't. I was not satisfied with doctor.

Due to your symptoms, a high chance that you went through a hyperglycemic episode which could lead to dehydration and above-normal blood pressure. I would say that you should go and see an endocrinologist who specializes in diabetic care to help you monitor your blood sugar levels and find out the right insulin dosage for you
