Even those of us without diabetes are occasional susceptible to levels that are classed as hypoglycemic, so if you haven't been given a diagnosis or been told that you're prediabetic diabetes probably isn't what you need to be worrying about.
If you're really, really too anxious to go out and see your doctor then you can get a home blood test kit. I'm not sure how reliable they are though, so I would say it's in your best interests to see your doctor. If they say it's down to anxiety, just make sure you really push them in to sending you for a blood test... even if it is just for peace of mind. I was having the same symptoms a while ago and my doctor also told me it was down to anxiety. I pushed for a blood test which revealed that I had really low iron levels.
