Help please?

Idunnowhattonameme profile image

hello everyone! I am new on here. I do not have diabetes first off as far as we know however many people have it on both sides of the family. About once a month i get hypoglycemia symptoms. i get very shaky, my legs feel like jelly, my head hurts, i start sweating and get really hot, i have broken down crying for no reason whatsoever other than not haven eaten for a while, and i get confused. Im sadly very very forgetful so rarely have any food or candy with me to help me at all. I have almost fainted from this mainy times but as soon as i sit down it goes away? Im really confused and would really appreciate the help! Thanks in advance!

Hi. You get the symptoms of hyperglycaemia but have you seen an endocrinologist to investigate the cause of your symptoms? It is always good to know what is going on before you try to treat it.

I had similar symptoms five years ago. I got bad yeast infection and it turned out I have diabetes type 2. I couldnt understand why I got it. Till I found out half of my family got it. It is family genes. I didn't understand at first I am deaf and find hard to understand my GP. Till she phoned my daughter who explained to me. Since I am on meds I feel much better and lost nearly four stones. Please go to Doctor to ask to test blood and urine test. At first I was shocked why I got that not my sister. It turned out all my cousins o. My dad's side have diabetics.

When I had blood test results I was so shocked it was far too high. It could have killed me if there was no yeast infection.

Not what you're looking for?
