Low blood sugar level??


I had my blood tested on my grand fathers blood tester and it said my blood level is 1.2. I know this is low but what does this mean. today and yesterday I was very light headed and tired. I don't eat very much due to depression I have lost my appetite but I never go a day without eating. I had my blood tested by a doctor not to long ago and everything was good. could someone please give me some helpful info cause I am very worried. and what is the normal blood sugar level?

I am not really sure what it was, it is newer and it pokes your finger and than you put it on the strip. My gradfather said he thinks around 6.0 is normal. I am really not sure

There is a normal blood sugar level for your weight, but you should really listen to your body. If you are light headed and tired, you need to eat. Honestly you should be eating six small meals a day (meals consist of a portion of protein and a portion of carbohydrates). Portions are either the size of your fist (for carbs) or the palm of your hand (for meats and protein).

Carbs should be fruits and veggies and whole grain breads, rice, and pasta. Good protien sources are chicken, lean red meat, cold water fishes, and also some dairy (lowfat cottage cheese is my favorite!)

Your body needs refueling every three to four hours, and you should also be drinking water constantly throughout the day. Lightheadedness and being tired are also symptoms of dehydration. Check our www.bodyforlife.com to learn more.

I'm a diabetic, any blood sugar level below 80 is low, I've never heard of 1.2, is that an old or new type of meter. Need more info

If your fasting blood sugar is 100 mg/dL (5.55 mmol/L) to 125 mg/dL (6.94 mmol/L),

don't know if this will help. but you need to go to the doctor and be checked for hypoglocyma. i had the same problems, except mine got to where my hands and feet would fall asleep. i can tell you a pill to take that you can by at walmart that does help the dizzy spells. it is MECLIZINE 25MG TABLETS. try one first, i take two when i need them. but they do make me not fall asleep, but sleepy feeling. but do go to the doctor, your blood sugar is nothing to play with.

it depends on what you eat, not how much or when its what. yes your right your blood sugar level is very low go back to your doctor and tell him exactly what has been going on and tell him your worried about how low it is. after you go to the docs email me if its still low i can help you out ok? emmakelly_89@yahoo.com cheers!!!!!!
