Hi @A DiabetesTeam Member,
It could be for many other reasons, but my Bride, children, and grandchildren get headaches when they are a bit dehydrated.

So if this is the case, the fix is easy. Try it and if it doesn't work, see your doctor.

It is suggested that 3-5 litres water daily, if your doctors allow that, is necessary for best hydration.

I personally sip 5-8 litres daily.
Most of it by 1400-1500 hours so I have fewer nighttime loo visits.

Try the 3-5 litres water daily. Replace your electrolytes and see how you feel.

If it works, great. If it doesn't, see your doctor immediately.

Good luck. Praying.
