Low blood sugar?


I know that high levels of sugar can increase the need to urinate...but can low sugar affect a person the same way ?

High levels of glucose in your blood is called hyperglycemia, it doesn't necessarily make you urinate more often, but will cause a lot of other things like severe headache, etc. Low levels are hypoglycemia. Both can be dangerous.
Continuous high levels are a sign of diabetes. Low levels mean you burn your sugar at a very fast level. If you have hypoglycemia, you need to make sure you have enough protein in your body. Don't skip meals and don't try to replace your low blood sugar with high level carbohydrates that are in sodas. It usually makes your blood sugar drop more frequently. You also need to see your doctor about this.

No. Low blood sugar can make people very lightheaded and weak. Some can pass out if it is too low and this can be dangerous.

no.. it will make you dizzy

Also known as hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia can make you drowsy and weak, as well as blurry vision and dizziness. (these are the most common symptoms) Hypoglycemia is more dangerous then hyperglycemia. If your sugar is low then you can be in the hospital. Possibly dead.
