10 Symptoms of Hypoglycemia
Symptom #3: Dizziness
Feeling dizzy could be a symptom of hypoglycemia. The feeling of weakness and lightheadedness, as if you will pass out, occurs when the blood flowing to the brain is low in glucose. This means that the brain is not getting adequate energy to perform its functions. The results are similar to those of inadequate blood supply to the brain.
If you are having dizziness and it’s been hours since you had a meal, you need to eat or drink without delay. For faster results, take a high sugar food or drink. If the feeling does not go away soon, you probably have a more serious problem in which case you should seek medical care. In case you experience recurrent dizziness and you are not on treatment for diabetes, it is recommended that you get tested.
