What Are The Symptoms And Treatment For Hypoglycemia?

yes what are symptoms of hypoglycemia and and hyperglycemia? I have been feeling really sick for the last couple of months. I have a lot of other medical problems but this this one has really been kicking my butt. I have a lot of autoimmune diseases. I didn't think about diabetes until a couple nights ago and a had I had a fruity odor to my breath. I had not eaten and was drinking water. So that's what made me think about this. I have always ran 60 -90 blood sugars . I used 5 of my mother's test strips and her prodigy tester. I was NPO and had only had drank water. 1St at 9:30 am 149, 2nd 1:45 167, 3rd 147 4th 30 mins. after snack 119, 5th 158. Can you please let me know without checking me what you think.Thank Sir/Madam

Hello,

Symptoms of hyperglycemia
As such there are no symptoms in particular.But in some following symptoms can be seen
*Generalized weakness
*Unexplained weight loss
*Itching private parts
*Increased frequency of micturition
*Burning feet
*Blurring of vision

Symptoms of Hypoglycemia
In mild to moderate cases,they may have giddiness,hunger,sweating,numbness tip of nose and tongue
In severe cases,it leads to unconsciousness,and even coma.

Reason for fruity odor to your breath is due to Ketosis as a result of your starvation.Your blood sugar recordings does not confirm the diagnosis of Diabetes.As you have mentioned that you are having autoimmune diseases,its better to get Glucose Tolerance test to rule out Diabetes.

I wish you good health.Hope my advice was helpful to you.would be happy to answer further queries.
