Hi,Ajanders,
Welcome to HCM,
It seems that you might be having Hypoglycemia i.e.low blood sugar giving this problem.
Take sugar crystals or chocolates or icecream or some sweets and you will be alright.
Keep your ID with diabetic card and few sugar crystals and chocolates in your pocket.
Ok and bye.

General & Family Physician Dr. Jeevan Jyot Bahia's  Response
Your symptoms are suggestive of Hypoglycemia. Being a type II Diabetic you should take three major meals and two snacks. Avoid fasting for long hours. Symptoms of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) are giddiness, palpitations, blurred vision and faint feeling. If you suffer with these symptoms more often, do consult your physician and amend your diabetic medication dose.Whenever you experience symptoms of hypoglycemia do take a bar of chocolate/fruit juice/toffee or biscuits to feel better.
