Dizziness can be a common symptom of both hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and hyperglycemia (high blood sugar). Part of any diabetes treatment program will include frequent finger pricks to test blood glucose levels. If you are experiencing dizziness you should be testing your blood glucose. You should then treat any abnormal glucose levels according to your prescribed treatment plan.

Dizziness is a common problem when your blood sugar is too high or too low. Thus, if you have diabetes, it can actually be a warning sign that you need to check your blood sugar and take appropriate action. If the diabetes is under control, there should be no episodes of dizziness.
