I get headache if I miss my meal or late. Is it a sign of approaching diabetes?

    No. It's a sign that you're hungry.

    Eat! Even a glass of milk can be helpful.

    Not really, but if you're worried you should get your A1C tested. But mostly your body's not going to like being hungry.

    Likely just a drop in blood glucose levels. Happens to me if I go too long without eating, especially after heavy exercise.

    Sometimes I get a headache if I need to drink some water.

    It's a sign you're hungry, or possibly dehydrated.

    If you're worried about diabetes, have your doctor test your A1C.
