If you have diabetes, drinking alcohol may cause your blood sugar to either rise or fall. Plus, alcohol has a lot of calories. If you drink, do it occasionally and only when your diabetes and blood sugar level are well-controlled.
A diabetic is most likely to be confused with a person impaired by alcohol or. drugs when he or she has taken too much insulin, so that the blood sugar level becomes. dangerously low. This condition is sometimes called insulin shock.
