From the symptoms you mentioned, you probably experience a seizure of your blood sugar levels, known as hypoglycemia. You should seek help from an endocrinologist or a diabetes specialist and attend a detailed examination and proper treatment. Insulin can be a hazardous medication to self-select and therefore should only be taken upon a healthcare provider's advice.

Due to your symptoms, a high chance that you went through a hyperglycemic episode which could lead to dehydration and above-normal blood pressure. I would say that you should go and see an endocrinologist who specializes in diabetic care to help you monitor your blood sugar levels and find out the right insulin dosage for you
