I'm glad to hear that Bear is doing better.

Is he still not eating his regular food? Have you tried making it more tempting by mixing it with Cesar or liver treats?

Maybe his blood sugar was really low because he wasn't eating? Is that what the vet told you?

Archie, the first Yorkie I had, didn't eat for a while. I brought him to the vet and they had to IV him to get his blood sugar up, or he could have died. Since then, I force-fed him if he didn't eat for more than a half day.
