Just wondering....how do you know if you have hypoclycemia/or diabetes?!
Question: are their different symptoms for each one or are they the same symptoms....??.

There is a test a doctor can do it is called Hemoglobin A1C which it is a very accurate test a doctor can determine if you have hypoglycemia/Diabetes. There is no perscription medication for hypoglycemia, but there is in fact perscription medications out there for Diabetes.
Yes, different symptons but you could actually have both. Two sides of the same coin. If you suspect either get tested ASAP.
with hypoglycemia your blood sugar gets really low, you feel faint,dizzy etc. Not sure with diabetes,,routine blood work caught it right at onset for me. However i strongly recommend herba sway green tea one serving took my blood sugar from 181, first time i checked it,to 121 in 30 min. took it for about a year never any meds. have not taker it for a year ,eat what i want. also try diabetica tea awsome stuff. herbasway.com
I am a prediabetic with an impaired fasting glucose. During the 3 hr test after I drank the sugar stuff. Right at the 3 hr mark I started to feel shakey. My blood sugar was 68 which is low and had the test kept going it probable would have gone lower. My a1c are in the 5.5 range. Because of that 68 at the 3hr mark they feel I am also reactive hypoblyciema.
HypOglycemia is when your blood sugar is too low. Diabetes is the opposite, that is hypERglycemia, where your blood sugar is high. Being diabetic means you may experience both, like if you give too much insulin, you will have a hypoglycemic episode. There are different symptoms for each, but there are some shared.....such as a headache or being dizzy (when your blood is very, very high). Low blood is hard to describe, sometimes you can hallucinate (in a scary manner!), you might not be able to walk, you might freeze up and not speak properly, you may sweat....with high blood, you are very thirsty, you don't want to eat, you feel nauseous...neither are pleasant, with low blood you may pass out if you get no food, with high blood long term damage starts to take place and you may end up needing to have a limb cut off or a heart attack, or something called neuropathy which makes you lose feeling in your extremities or pain with needle-like feelings in them. Both are bad, you need to try your best to keep a happy medium.
