HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It is good that you are relying not only on medication but on your spirituality as well to help with your diabetes.

The symptoms that you are experiencing may or may not be related to the medication that you using for diabetes. Trajenta can sometimes be associated with a headache but this is not a known side effect of farxiga.

You may want to monitor for now unless the symptoms are unbearable , in which case you should visit your doctor for assessment.

A healthy diet and physical activity are also important in management of diabetes.

I hope this helps
