Symptomless hypoglycaemia

We report an unusual case of hypoglycaemia, in which a pregnant woman with a Rh-negative problem and random blood glucose levels of less than 10 mg/100 ml was found to have no clinical symptoms of hypoglycaemia. The patient, who had a blood glucose concentration of 7 mg/100 ml, behaved as normally as a person with the expected average physiological value. This finding did not seem to be connected in any way with the patient's serious Rh-ve problem. We have been unable to find reports of a similar situation in the literature available to us.
