I need help!!!!

My Yorkie Toby is 11 weeks old. Last saturday his blood sugar dropped. We took him to the emergency vet and he got better. They told us to make sure he is eating at least 4 times a day and to give him nutrical in between meals to keep his blood sugar level up. For the past couple of days he has been doing really good. He has been hyper and we have been doing what the vet told us. We gave him nutrical at 7:00 last night and by 7:00 this morning his blood sugar level had dropped again. We rushed him to the vet (not even sure if he was going to make it to the vet). Well he did make it to the vet and they tested his blood sugar level and it was 18. Its supposed to be over 100. I dont know exactly what they gave him but he started to come around. They told me he is Dehydrated and asked me if he had been having Diareah. Well he has. So they pumped him full of fluids and took a stool sample. They checked for Parvos and that came back negative. but they think he might have a parasite. Called Coxica or something similar to that. Has anyones dog ever had that and if so would that make his blood sugar drop that bad. I am really scared that we are going to have to keep rushing him to the vet because he gets hypoglycemic. It scares me to see him like that. He is also a very small dog. He weighed 1 lb today. If any of you guys know what i am talking about please just help me. I want my baby to be safe.
