HI
Welcome to HCM
High sugars will not cause headache . But high BP can . If his BP is not in control his BP medications needs to be adjusted , Kindly revert back with the medications and the dosage he is on .
Also I advise you take a consult from a dietician for a low carbohydrate , low salt and low fat diet . Kindly revert back .
