If you feel like you are going to pass out--its because you WILL and you ARE!
Not to scare you lady....but fear is what will keep you alive and get that adrenaline pumping as strength.
I am a professional hyperglycemia -atic...LOL...not proud. i have come a long way and survived which I AM proud! Around 30 now, and had my first fainting spell by passing out at 7. Woke up to find myself on the sidewalk with ambulance and neighbors surrounding me. It took them until i was 13 to figure out why i would have "seizures". Call someone if you feel this way. My plan is I call neighbor or barge into their home first when I feel it...and then 911 (I know backwards) but if I faint at least someone is there to help direct and revive me. If you are alone and this happens....and no one finds you? ............your in bad shape lady as you may not wake.
I replied to your other post here about 15 minutes ago:

Guess Ill post it to make sure you read this:
I cannot believe your doctor let you go home!
I have low blood sugar that tends to ride 50-72
Those glucose tablets can bit a bit scary but I love
the ones at Rite Aid...although if ur sugar is that low
you must NOT chew it fast...cause of COURSE it will shoot up
too fast and make you dizzy or faint..and panic cause of fear.
You must eat breakfast! EVERY MORNING!
A banana, smoothie, bagel with jelly...no skipping any meals at all!
Eat within 10 minutes of waking up. Eat between 4-6 times a day.
FULL meals or fruit.
Are you even eating? I cannot believe your cautious with a blood sugar level of 35.
I have been know to pass out or wake in the hospital at like 50.
This is VERY serious my dear because you could go into a sugar coma which is just as dangerous as a diabetic one.
So yes, if you feel that lightheadness or when you see things start to turn "orange color" call for help ASAP.
I used to faint all the time as a teen until they finally figured it out....by 21 I was mature enough to eat properlly and I rarely get the sugar attacks now. I think I am riding 70 as well with my blood sugar level which I think has been ok for me =)
A long time running but I have mastered it =)
PS I dont believe you are eating...so please tell me a typical 2 days worth of meals for you.
PS You must definitely find a solution BEFORE your next period. Especially if you get cramps. Trust me. The Pain...low blood sugar = dangerous. I had to stay in the hospital almost every month as a teen because of it...NOT fun..very scary!
Also if they try to inject you with that sugar water solution at the hospital or even doc office. You make SURE you complain with all your might that they are going to fast..and must go slow. Even if THEY think they are going slow injecting you. Let me tell you´--its never slow enough.
I can tell you so many stories during my childhood and teen years.. OMG!
I blame my mother though for never having proper food in the home or much for me
to snack on. As soon as I was an adult and out of the house and figured out a method that works (as i describe to you above)...My sugar level have gotten better and better.
Peanut Butter and Orange Juice on Bread is the best quick snack to help bring it up and feel better. NEVER EVER EVER leave home without eating, nor without a juice pack & crackers...till this day I carry em in my car or purse....and I have indeed needed to use it. If I am in a rush and leave the house within 20 minutes of waking and not eating...Im bound to get an attack...although I have noticed that I can go at least an hour now....but i carry my juice and crackers and eat as soon as Im in the car or at my destination.
