Can't stop shaking

Hi,
My body can't stop shaking with the unusually low Bg of 5-6.5 readings for me. I assume it is trying to adjust to the new level after a lifetime in the 12-18 Bg range. Since stopping Clonidine patches for BP it has suddenly dropped from Bg 9 range. Strange but it looks like the Clonidine has been interfering with my insulin and Bg readings. My Dr couldn't believe Clonidine bought me to a complete stop, unable to step or shuffle my feet, shutting down the motor function part of the brain. Started recovering within 24 hours of removing the patch and my dexterity has returned.
Does anyone have any idea how long I should expect this shaking to continue?
Cheers
 
I think it varies by person, hopefully it won’t last too long for you before you’re used to normal bgs again
