HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this is not diabetic but this could be due to low hemoglobin, better to get done the hemoglobin test, else this is nothing to worry, watch for any other symptoms, take care in diet, ask her try to away from stress, no need to worry about this, hope this helps, take care.
