Addressing hypoglycemic events is very important both in the office and in research. Objectives: Characterize the population in terms of age, sex, type of diabetes, duration of diabetes, HbA1c, treatment and prevalence of non severe hypoglycemia (level 1 and level 2) in the last month and severe (level 3) in the last three months. Evaluate factors associated with hypoglycemia. Evaluate patients actions as a result of non-severe and severe hypoglycemia, also the reported knowledge of hypoglycemia of their relatives, and the sources of diabetes education. Furthermore, evaluate fear as a result of hypoglycemia and its association with hypoglycemic events.
