Hi!
welcome to HCM!
Your symptoms are not arising due to diabetes.Your symptoms are due to your high stress level.such type of headache may be called tension type headache in which pain is often described as a constant pressure, as if the head were being squeezed .
precipitating factors that may cause tension-type headaches in susceptible individuals are:Stress,Sleep deprivation , bad posture ,Irregular meal time (hunger) and Eyestrain
tension-type headaches generally respond well to over-the-counter analgesics .
however you must get yourself examined by your doctor if they recur.
I sincerely hope this will help you!Take care!
