Is my son Diabetic

Asked for Male, 20 years

I have a 12 year old son. Every now and then he feels 'weak' and feels like he is shaking. His father gives him a spoonful of glucose and within minutes he is fine again. My grandmother was a diabetic - so not sure if he might have it. he was tested last year for iron levels and all came back fine. He has these 'spells' about 2/3 a month.
