Jwtk, when there is too little sugar for the brain to work properly, it seems like the patient is drunk/strange/confused. Too little sugar can slow down brain functioning just like too much alcohol can. It is a sign of a serious hypoglycaemia and action needs to be taken immediately to rectify it. Good luck.
