On the Internet, typing in all CAPS is akin to shouting.lease use lower case when posting. We can hear just as well.

As Zoe suggested, talk with your doctor to help get your glucose under control. Conditions associated with type 1 diabetes include hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, ketoacidosis and celiac disease. Go here for a good read on hypoglycemia. http://www.diabetes.org/type-1-diabetes/hypoglycemia.jsp

Yes, hypoglycemia can be an early warning sign of diabetes, or you might have something else going on. Talk to your doctor. Tell him what you are experiencing. Then make sure you get an A1C test, not just a fasting blood sugar test. The A1C tests all your glucose for the last couple months, not just one moment.
