Does anyone know?

I am a 30 year-old woman suffering from diabetes last month I gave birth to a healthy child. Following my doctor's advice, he is being breast-fed despite my diabetic diet but for the last few days, I am feeling very weak. Sometimes I even have vertigo. Is it because of my diabetes? Or breast feeding?
 
Your vertigo has nothing to do with breastfeeding. It might be due to uncontrolled diabetes, or hypertension, or some other illness. As you are breastfeeding you should be treated only with insulin. However, you must not take any oral antidiabetic drugs, because the drugs get secreted through breast milk, and thus enter the baby's body. You should follow a so that you can nurse your child properly. Good luck!
