Hello. Thanks for writing to HCM.
I read and understand your question very well.
I try my best to solve it.

Your recent Blood Pressure is 108/69 which is absolutely normal. You have diabetes. I think this is temporary and this turns to normal. I suggest to do daily meditation for 30 min , also walk 30 min daily.
I tell you not to take any stress or tension .
Do not think about too much on BP, divert your thought. Do activity you like. Do things you enjoy.
I also suggest to check your eyes to ophthalmologist, headache is due to eye problem also.
If problem continue than consult a good physician for this.

I hope my advice will help you a lot.
Thanks and Regards.

The present guidelines says that in diabetics the blood pressure should be kept below 135/85. As your blood pressure is pretty much in the higher normal range, I suggest no medication except cutting salt in your diet to less than 3gms a day with 30-45 mins of aerobic exercise atleast 5 times a week. That should do the magic. Regards
