Not usually: The classic symptoms of diabetes includes increased thirst, urination and hunger. If you become hypovolemic from urinating too much (your body trying to get rid of the extra glucose in the blood), you could become light-headed if you stand up too quickly. This sounds like you should discuss your dizzy spells with your dr. To make sure you are safe.

Dizzy: Dizziness is a word that is often used to describe two different feelings. It is important to know exactly what you mean when you say "I feel dizzy," because it can help you and your doctor narrow down the list of possible problems. http://www.webmd.com/brain/tc/dizziness-lightheadedness-and-vertigo-topic-overview#1
