Do I have diabetes?

Some years ago, I fainted in a Turkey Race and I was sent to the ambulance they told me that I have low blood sugar. Some times when I stand up my eye vision turns white for some sec. and becomes normal. This year I goot a blood test and they said everything was normal except that i had a skin allergy. I am 15 years old and I am 5'8" at 105-108lbs. Before I go to sleep I am around 108 then after I wake up I am 105. Is it diabetes or something else?

Diabetes by definition is high blood sugar, if you were an undiagnosed diabetic you would never have a low blood sugar episode. It would be quite the opposite.

You may have hypoglycemia which a lot of people have. It flares up if you don't eat often enough, or if you don't eat a balanced diet.

Depending on the severity. Generally with hypoglycemia as long as you eat three meals/day you are alright.

PS. it's normal to weigh more before bed then in the morning. This happens to everyone.
