Following Living In Muddy Waters' advice, I checked out low pressure system headaches. Following the advice of the website, I switched to an anti-inflammatory pain relief. And hey presto! no more headaches! Thank you!
Since the headache is gone I've noticed if been sniffling some and I think if I hit on the right sinus med my sinus will stop draining and then my thirst would disappear. Just to be safe, I am cutting white starchy food for the next several days.
Thanks again!

It could be serious...
Lately I've been having headaches. As I have migraines I can over look headaches. A little tension headache or sinus pressure is nothing.
I've also been really thirsty. So I drink lots and lots of water which makes me go to the bathroom more so now what we have are three symptoms of type 1 diabetes.
Maybe none of this is related. Maybe I'm stressed with sinus problems. Of course if you drink a lot you'll pee a lot. This is not a serious issue.
But diabetes runs on both sides of my family. I've been arguing with myself for a week. I have a similar argument whenever I cut grass. As I wheeze red-faced and staggering into the house I will think my heart is going to explode it's pounding so hard. I will tell myself I am out of shape. I will remind myself heart disease runs in my family. I will tell myself to shut up. My heart will ache and will tell myself it is not my time. I'll tell me to shut up again.
So, to convince me that I am a big worry-wart, I stopped drinking alcohol. I cut back on my caffeine because even I cannot convince me to stop drinking coffee. I cut out sugar, too while I was cutting back. I am drinking water all day. I tell myself I am dehydrated. All of this is helping. Now I am just thirsty instead of feeling I haven't had water for a week. The headaches are less. But the symptoms haven't completely gone away. I'm giving it another week before I go to a doc. In the meantime if anyone knows what wrong me, let me know. Myself is starting to get on Me's nerves.

What's new
Just to let you know what is going on-
I am going to buy a new computer when I get my tax refund and then I'll post on a regular basis. I was thinking about doing weekly witchcraft and cooking lessons. Maybe sewing too.
I've been doing a lot of sewing because my New Year's resolution was to clean off my sewing table and keep it that way. I've sold a quilt, got orders for 3 more, finished another one to sell, and recovered Kevin's bar stool.
I have also made a month's worth of menus, cooked a lot of meals and put them in the freezer, and tried a couple of new dishes.
I went to a funeral yesterday and came up with more family observations, like why my father is always early, so I have lots to write about now.
