Brief Answer:
Please have detailed blood tests

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,

Welcome to HCM. I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.

Your blood sugars after food is on the lower side. Your frequent headache and anxiety may be related to that. You need additional investigations.

Please check the following: Fasting blood sugar, fasting insulin levels, HbA1c and hourly blood sugars for 4 hours after a meal. If your symptoms are related to low sugars, diet modifications or medications can relieve your symptoms.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
