headaches

My little brother has type 1 diabetes and was diagnosed with it at 12 months old and he sometimes get bad migraines. What causes migraines and bad headaches when you have type 1 diabetes?

He is 17 years old and is a big part of me. If something ever happened to him, damn I don’t know what I’d do.
I need some responses here guys.
Thank Tralee, but he already has an insulin pump as do most people with type 1.

    I get migraines more often than regular headaches, I don’t really want to have to get a prescription for this. So what suggestions are there to get rid of migraines the old fashioned way, home remedies anyone?

      I have migraines usually about once every couple of months. I usually use prescription Imitrex, but does anyone use anything over the counter that works? I tried one once, but it didn’t help too much. I get SERIOUS migraines – numbness in my fingers, vision problems, trouble talking and then the headache starts. I also get really, really sick to my stomach. The prescriptions are starting to get expensive so I would like to know if over the counter has worked for anyone?
      I don’t get sick because of the medicine I take. Its from the migraine itself. I can handle the headache – but being sick to my stomach for three hours! Its horrible. Do any of the OTC work for nausea?
      Another thing – I don’t know what causes my headaches. It used to be that I would get them after swimming (I was on the swimteam and a lifeguard) but ever since I had surgery they have been more frequent.
