How do I know if I have hypoglycemia or diabetes?

Posted on September 14, 2011

Is it normal to feel dizzy/lightheaded if you don't eat anything for 8 hours? Can a person have hypoglycemia and diabetes?

Just curious. I once tested my blood sugar levels with those testers for people with diabetes, and it was 5.9, and I had just drank hot chocolate and eaten some food. Is that normal for a teen girl?

Thanks!
