Is Lightheadedness And Fatigue Upon Eating Food A Symptom Of Diabetes?
My husband has recently been having some strange symptoms. He gets light headed and tingly like feelings after he eats and gets instantly tired. Its very strange. He then is so tired he has to immediately go to bed and is out cold for a minimum of 8 hours? I was concerned that it may be a sign of diabetes since it seems to be food related?

Hello,
As there are symptoms of weakness and tiredness after taking meals, if he is not diabetic already, then it must be properly diagnosed.
He should undergo ultrasound abdomen and liver tests as serum albumin, serum bilirubin, SGPT, SGOT and urine complete.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
