Hi, you really need to get checked out by your dr. It isn't diabetes - we get dizzy at times cos we take insulin (called a hypo - when we've taken too much insulin our blood sugar goes too low and makes us sick) - you don't take insulin so this isn't caused by diabetes. There's heaps of things it could be, including lots of v simple and treatable things, your dr will be able to examine you and hopefully find out. Good luck - hope you're feeling better soon xx

it could be hypoglycemia(low blood sugar), but im not a doctor. do you get blackouts for a minute or two sometimes??. go to a doctor anyway, to be on the safe side. hell do a couple of blood tests and if that dosent find out youll prob have to have a scan done. dont delay going to the doctor. i know we all do at times.

sounds like low blood pressure but impossible to diagnose over the internet. You should make an emergency appointment with your GP and get it checked out IMMEDIATELY.

Could be diabetes, electrolyte issue, heart issue or any number of thing. By all means, don't self-diagnose. You need to see a doctor.
