dizziness and tremors

Sometimes i just get dizzy and shacking after eating any kind of meal (if it has some carbs it is way worse). Its almost like im going to faint.
This is awful because i feel the need to rush to the kitchen/where ever and eat until the sickness goes away. And if i dont eat i will star feeling like fainting.
Does anyone has this problem?

    You need to see your doctor, it sounds like it could be something to do with your blood sugar levels dropping too quickly.

    Yep, used to have this issue all the time because I'm insulin resistant.

    Are you diabetic?

    Hi,

    My sister use to have "episodes" similair to that. Turned out she was diabetic. Maybe best to talk to your doctor.

    Like others have said, go see your doctor. Only they are qualified to give you a proper answer to your questions.

    If you are eating enough calories and the right kind of calories you shouldn't experience this so it's best to go get checked out.

    I was. I was diagnosed as insulin resistant (I have PCOS) when I was 18 but when I was 23 I was diagnosed with diabetes. It scared me enough to lose 20 pounds and get my blood sugar lower but I have always had issues with roller coaster blood sugar unless I am on strict low carb.
