Thyroid storm presenting with severe hypoglycemia: a case report

We present a case of thyroid storm with severe hypoglycemia in an elderly woman with a known history of type 2 diabetes mellitus and hyperthyroidism. Our case report highlights the need for prompt diagnosis and treatment of thyroid crisis and also to make the clinician aware of the possibility of an extremely rare and unlikely association between thyroid crisis and severe hypoglycemia. To the best of the author's knowledge, such a rare case is reported for the first time in Indian literature.
