hypoglycemia and dizziness

type of blood treasure drop that may cause dizziness. But there are many other causes of dizziness such as vasovagal problems and heart conditions.

An intravenous blood sample to test your blood sugar level at the time of these signs and symptoms is the only way to know for sure that hypoglycemia is the cause. It's my guess that's what it was and after you ate the apple you felt better. Please see your doctor just to be sure!

Nausea and dizziness can both be symptoms of low blood sugar, or, as the previous poster noted, high sugar levels. If your glucose levels are running too high, usually the person shows the typical symptoms of unusual thirst and fatigue. If low, dizziness, inability to concentrate, headaches, yawning for no reason, shaking hands, irritability or depression, sleepiness, or a dry mouth or eyes can be present.

in women, internal bleeding or hemorrhage, anemia, infections, endocrine disease like thyroid, pituitary gland and adrenals, allergies may cause wheezing, low blood pressure, can trigger sinusitis and resulting dizziness. Psychiatrist reasons like depression, panic disorder and hyperventilation also need to be excluded. Take care.

Trembling, fatigue and headaches after meals may be caused by postprandial hypoglycemia or reactive hypoglycemia. To verify this diagnosis, you need to check your blood sugar level ( a blood glucose level that falls below 70mg/dL). This condition usually occurs in individuals who do not have diabetes. Associated symptoms include sweating, dizziness, anxiety, confusion, weakness and difficulty with speech.

You don't say if you have type 1 diabetes. How low does your blood sugar drop at how long after eating. Then how high does it spike? Are you on medication or insulin?

I am just wanting to know what can cause Dizziness and Nausea? only has happened 3 times in the last 2 or three months!

hunger, nervousness, perspiration, shakiness, dizziness, light-headedness, sleepiness, confusion, difficulty speaking, and feeling anxious or weak. If you are diagnosed with hypoglycemia, your doctor will try to find the cause by using laboratory tests to measure blood glucose, insulin, and other chemicals that play a part in the body's use of energy. (Possibly if you do not have a glucometer, you can find out if your doctor will write a prescription for it and if your med. ins.

Not sure how long that lasted. Since then he has been fine till yesterday and today he has said he felt dizzy and thought he may be going to have a seizure again. Today he said he felt "drunk" and then he ate his sandwich and he was ok. He is otherwise a healthy slim energetic teenager who doesn't eat a very healthy diet. Any advice or thoughts would be appreciated. I haven't taken him to the doctor as yet but think I should now.

If your BP is 115/68 then while standing up it could be dropping down. Another possibility of dizziness with rapid pulse is hypoglycemia. It can also be anxiety and panic disorder. Heart problems like mitral valve prolapse too should be looked into. Please consult your PCP for primary examination followed by proper referral. Hope this helps. Take care!

Headaches also could indicate high blood pressure, hypoglycemia, stress, migraines, and cluster and tension headaches. If the pain is, one sided, tumor and aneurysm need to be excluded with an MRI brain. Sinusitis is another condition where headache may present, varying with movement of head. You are welcome with further elaboration of your condition and for more queries. Wish you all the best.

If dizziness is being caused by sinusitis in your case,then treatment of sinusitis only will lead to its improvement.How ever other causes of dizziness are low BP,hypoglycemia,TIA,Impending stroke,inner ear diseases,Meniere’s disease,cervical spondolysis,vertebrobasilar insufficiency and carotid sinus syndrome. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you had any other queries.

The symptoms are vary varied and might include dizziness, feeling generally out of it, fatigue, irritability, disorientation, tingling. Testing is the key as if your numbers have been high for awhile you will feel low even if you're not. You should treat any lows below 60 (some treat below 70) with a couple glucose tablets. You will learn the correct number for you.

He sometimes gets really high blood pressure, to the point where his face turns red and he gets a bad headache, and sometimes he gets extreme hypoglycemia with this, too, and needs to get some sugar. So, maybe it is something with your pituitary. Cushing's (high cortisol) disease can also cause high blood pressure. Mononucleosis (EBV) could cause dizziness and nausea, along with fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, sometimes cold symptoms like a sore throat. Goodluck!

I am just enumerating the possible causes. You can discuss this with your doctor and get yourself examined. Dizziness could be due to postural hypotension (blood pressure falling with change of position), internal ear problems and cervical spondylitis or compression of cervical spinal nerves. All these cause dizziness when you get up from lying down position or when you change position that results in a change in the level of your head.

You might be able to bypass the MRI and be sent to a ENT dr..... save you some money along the way..... Hope this helps and that you feel better very soon......

Since it is early morning dizziness, hypoglycemia, GERD, nerve compression and benign intracranial hypertension and postural hypotension should be ruled out. Hope this helps. Take care!
