i haven't been able to gain weight for like a year. i feel sick all the time. Normally i weigh around 130 or 135 but for over a year i have weighed 105 to 107 pounds. I feel dizzy alot. I eat more food now than what i did before. If i don't eat i feel really sick. I have been getting bruises easy. What could be wrong with me and what should i do?

As you probably suspect since this question is in the diabetes section, these symptoms could be signs of diabetes. Your best bet is to schedule a blood test and a follow-up doctors appointment. When arranging the blood test, be sure to tell them you are concerned about diabetes to make sure the proper tests are run. In the mean time, avoid sugary foods, and try to space meals more evenly throughout the day, rather than 3 large meals. Even if the problem is not diabetes, the blood test is likely to pick up other possible causes such as a thyroid condition.

Some of peoples answers are just so stupid! You should definately see your Doctor. The bruises sound like you might be anemic. Maybe an Iron Deficiancy, but only your Doctor can diagnose you properly.

You need to see your doctor.
No one here can diagnose you.
Good luck
