Question

Today my doctor wanted to run blood test , and before she could even get the blood out I started feeling faint , I started sweating really bad blurred vision and it ended up my blood surgar was low ? I never had this happen when getting blood drawn. Is this that even normal for your blood surgar to do?

Answer

That’s a normal reaction to a low blood sugar. It was likely amplified by the blood draw (some people just react that way). Just let them know so they can be prepared for it.

Answer

From now on let them know you’re a fainter and they’ll lay you down to do sticks and give you juice and a cookie after 😊

Answer

It’s normal. I pass out every time I get blood drawn. Sometimes it’s immediate and sometimes it’s a few minutes after. It’s bc I don’t eat before blood work and bc I hold my breath the entire time they’re drawing. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I throw up if I eat before bloodwork. I’d hate to throw up while passed up and choke. So I just avoid eating.

Answer

It can be normal but its your bodies way of alerting you. Mine does this and I kept track of my sugars  for 30 days to see what my “normal” was. I’m pre diabetic and have been for a couple years now. 
My “normal” is around 130-150. If I get to 78-90 which is normal for anyone else I start to feel like you did.

Answer

It could have just been the fear. When was the last time you ate?? You could have hypoglycemia. It isn’t really normal unless you have a diagnosis or didn’t eat for an extended period of time. I would definitely look into it.
