Cause For Fluctuation In Blood Sugar Level?
I was working around the house and suddenly felt really dizzy, shaky, light headed. My dad has an old blood sugar level reader and I checked it. it read 57. I ate these maple sugar pecans and it went up to 90. i still feel shaky but a little better. am i ok?

Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your clinical history and query, my opinion is as follows:
1. Lightheadedness and dizziness is due to hypoglycemia meaning low glucose levels.
2. Glucose levels above 80 and below 120 are normal. So a level of 90 is not of concern.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
