I think I'm going to say morning hypoglycemia so serum glucose (might be from an insulinoma or something along those lines) but Thyroid would look good if it wasnt for the fact that it happened in the morning...

[dranant]

B.Serum glucose measurement ???
it could be morning hypoglycemic episode...
