Headache, Tired After Having Sweet Food. Am I Diabetic? Anemia? What Is The Cure?

Hi this is just a quick question. I am going for blood tests next week for diabetes . Every time I eat sugar it has the opposite effect on me. One day I had just an apple and I was fine. The next day decided to have 2 apples and some grapes. With in minutes I felt horrible. Bad headache ,really tired and can t concentrate . I go into a day dream a lot to. Is this diabetes do you think. Or is this something else. I am very pale by the way. I wonder if it it anaemia or something.

DEAR SIR/MADAM

FIRST THING I JUST WANT TO TELL YOU THAT THE CHANCES THAT YOU MIGHT BE HAVE DIABETES IS VERY LOW.
SOME TIMES IMMEDIATELY AFTER TAKING SUGARS IN CONSIDERABLE LARGE QUANTITY YOU MIGHT GET HEADACHE MIGHT BE DUE TO FOLLOWING REASONS.
1. DEHYDRATION - HIGH SUGARS IN BLOOD CAUSES EXCESSIVE URINATION WHICH MIGHT LEAD TO INCREASED WATER LOSS FROM BODY, CAUSES HEADACHE
2. SOME TIMES DUE TO INCREASED SUGARS YOUR CELLULAR WATER CONTENT MAY GO TO EXHAUTION CAUSING HEADACHE.
3. SOME TIMES HIGH SUGARS IN THE BLOOD MIGHT BE TOXIC

IF YOU ARE NOT HAVING ANY SYMPTOMS OF DIABETES SUCH AS EXCESSIVE THIRST, EXCESSIVE SWEATING, AND WEIGHT LOSS ETC.

ITS BETTER TO GET YOU HEMOGLOBIN ESTIMATION DONE.
