Low blood sugar may cause high blood pressure.

When low blood sugar attacks, the body will initiate a stress response. In response to the drop in blood sugar, the body will release a variety of hormones, such as adrenaline, norepinephrine, etc. These hormones not only promote liver glycogen decomposition to raise blood sugar, but also may cause vasoconstriction, which may cause high blood pressure. In addition, in a state of stress, the contractility of the heart may increase, and cardiac output may increase, which may also cause high blood pressure. When the human body is in an uncomfortable state of hypoglycemia, it may be accompanied by emotional tension, anxiety, etc. These emotional factors may also affect blood pressure to a certain extent, leading to fluctuations or even increases in blood pressure.
