Sudden dizziness, sweating, shivering, and feeling very weak are classic signs. Always keep some biscuits or sweet candies handy in your bag.

Shakiness, fast heartbeat, and sudden fatigue are direct symptoms. If you feel this often, get your blood sugar tested and talk to your gynac.

I remember getting very dizzy and lightheaded if I delayed my breakfast even by 10 minutes. Keep a box of dry fruits or glucose biscuits with you always.

I used to feel very shaky and sweaty because I couldn't keep food down due to nausea. Having a small piece of jaggery immediately helped me a lot.

Feeling shaky or lightheaded can mean low sugar. Try having small meals every 2 hours, but if this happens frequently, please check with your doctor.
