[Swanny57]

Been plagued by headaches since diabetes levels have gone up do you think there is a connection as I don't normally suffer from them ?

Hi @Swanny57

It could be but you should be talking to your doctor if they are persistent. Are you testing your sugar levels? If so, what are your readings like?

Just started testing and levels are high even on metformin feel rubbish

What do you call high, what are your readings.?

10 would be high?

10 first thing in morning then after breakfast of porridge and berries 13.3

Hi. Those readings, although higher than they should be are not too bad. It is unlikely the raised blood sugar at that level is causing the headaches but we are all different and it's possible.

breakfast of porridge and berries 13.3 this would have been the same for me .. have you tried cutting down on carbs , that can lead to headaches for a short while
