Dear zootsuit-ga;

Thank you for allowing me to answer your interesting question.

?Symptoms of an insulin overdose reflect very low blood sugar levels
and include headache, irregular heartbeat, increased heart rate or
pulse, sweating, tremor, nausea, increased hunger, and anxiety.?

?SERIOUS SYMPTOMS

Symptoms of hypoglycemia can be caused by the release of adrenaline or
by an inadequate supply of glucose to the brain. With severe
hypoglycemia, lack of sufficient glucose to the brain may cause
slurred speech, impaired concentration, confusion, seizures, coma,
irreversible brain damage, and death. Mild hypoglycemia may cause
restless sleep, nightmares, or a cold sweat that awakens patients at
night.
  
COMMON SYMPTOMS

Symptoms resulting from release of adrenaline are common
manifestations of mild to moderate hypoglycemia. They include cold
sweats, anxiety, shakiness, hunger, rapid heartbeat, head-ache, and
nervousness. Weight gain is common when taking insulin.
  
LESS COMMON SYMPTOMS

Allergic reactions, lipoatrophy (depressions in the skin due to loss
of fat tissue), and lipohypertrophy (excessive accumulation of fat
tissue).?
