Not feeling quite right

I don't feel quite right, and I have the following symptoms:

Increased urination
Increased appetite
Dizziness (which I thought was from low blood sugar, but continued after eating)
Itchy skin
Multiple yeast infections
Nausea
Fatigue/lethargy even after getting enough sleep

At first, I wasn't really worried. The yeast infections always went away, and those were my only problem. In the past couple of weeks though, the other symptoms have shown up, and have gotten worse just this past week or so.

The dizziness first happened the other day, but I had what I thought to be a rational explanation...I only got 5 hours of sleep the night before, so I was overtired, and, I hadn't eaten in hours so my blood sugar was low. Well, even after I ate, I still felt kinda dizzy...and it's happened again since.

The nausea could be because my period is due soon...nausea right before isn't uncommon for me.

What could be wrong with me?
 
I haven't been checked for diabetes lately. I was last year, and I was told that I was fine since my blood sugar was in the normal range. I suspect it probably is now as well.

The first yeast infection came after taking some antibiotics back in October or November, but it went away just fine. The only other medication I take is birth control, but I've been on that for months and it's never caused a yeast infection so I don't think that's it.
 
I agree with Auntie, these symptoms sound like diabetes and you should be checked again. Also, are you positive you aren't pregnant? Its not unheard of to get pregnant even while on birth control.
