Dakota Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I have been having problems with bad headaches a couple times a week for the past several years. I've been to Neurologists and they haven't ever been able to pinpoint what is triggering them. What we have discovered, however, is that they are often associated with low blood sugar. Diabetes runs in both sides of my family and my mom was just diagnosed with it a couple weeks ago. We're begining to wonder if I have it as well. Well, this morning I got up early and went to the clinic early before my morning classes for some lab work. They took a blood test to check my blood sugar level. I am really hoping and praying that I don't have Diabetes, yet on the other hand it would be nice to know what is at the root of the problem. I could just really use your prayers, all! Thanks!

Tominator Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 If you have low blood sugar, it's not diabetes. Diabetes is the opposite. You'll also notice urinating a lot and always being thirsty. Prayers sent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuffnufOutdoors Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 My prayers are with you. Also vision can get blurry with the diabetes. Thats how I found I had it. Never caused me headaches though. My high blood pressure did that to me. Keep your head up you can live a very happy life with diabetes too. God bless.

HUNTINGMAN Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I know how you feel brother,I have been liveing with cronic headachs for the last 8 to 10 month or so,I cant remember for sure when they started it has been so long.Mine are an every day thing though,I wake up with them and go to bed with them.Blurred vision throughout the day,dizzyness and lots of pain.I have had an MRI done that found nothing,all blood work found nothing wrong,went last week ant done a sleep test for sleep apnea and am going next weak to get a spinal tap to measure the preasure on my brain.My neurologist put me on Topomax wich is for migrains and seizers and it seems to be helping them go away.You may look into the sleep sudy to see about that,I didnt know it but not getting the propper airflow while sleeping can cause cronic daily headachs.Wish you luck man.

Randy Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I've also heard different foods can cause migraines. May want to keep track of what you eat for that reason as well. Prayers sent buddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
