Could Diabetes And Kidney Problem Cause Lightheadedness And Fatigue Before Passing Stools And Urination?

Hello. Prior to having to go to the bathroom, #1 or #2, I feel light headed, tired, fuzzy headed, lack concentration. I was diagnosed with diabetes and have a kidney that functions at about 50%. The other kidney is normal. Any idea what causes such symptoms?

Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I a so sorry to hear about these symptoms that you have. These symptoms are not caused by either diabetes or a kidney disease. If you often get out of your seat suddenly, it may be the cause of this as there is a sudden change in blood pressure that maybe able to explain these symptoms. I will suggest that you get out of you seat slower and see whether there would be any change or not.


I hope this addresses your query fully and provides enough information for you to act on. Feel free to ask for any clarification or more information if needed and I will gladly respond to.Thanks for using our services and I wish you well.
