Unlikely: If you became ill after eating sweet stuff you might be in ketoacidosis rather than hypoglycemia. You need to keep closer tabs on your blood sugar.

Diabetes: Could be hypoglycemia or could be hyperglycemia and ketoacidosis so if you havent't seen your doctor yet go! or you'll end up in an emergency room soon.
