High or low BS?

High or low blood sugar?
I went to the movies and had some popcorn. About 3 hours later, on the way home, I started to feel nauseous, had a headache, and my vision got a little blurry. I had my BP checked and it was fine, but my pulse was high. It seemed more like low blood sugar than high. I ate a piece of chocolate and it seemed to help. I haven't had my consulte yet with a dietician so I was hoping you ladies could chime in and tell me what you think.

Eek not sure, I always get dizzy with low. I know in school we were taught the saying "cold and clammy need some candy. hot and dry = sugar high.".

It's hard to say because everyone reacts different. With DD if I was low I just got a headache. Now with ds I get hot and feel like I'm sweating bullets

Thanks for the input ladies, the candy definitely helped. So, I'm going to assume it was low. Otherwise, the candy would have made it worse.

Candy is bad when your low it will make it spike high and then drop again. Try 4 oz of orange juice or 8oz of milk, then have a more substantial snack like cheese and crackers or peanut butter and crackers so your sugar stabilizes.
