If you have been diagnosed with Type II Diabetes Mellitus there are medical papers associating renal failure with hypoglycemia. I’m not a doctor and cannot say hypoglycemia can cause renal failure (kidney) but the potential is there. This slide program illustrates that http://edrv.endojournals.org/cgi/content/full/25/6/971/F2 Be forewarned its pretty heavy in medical terminology. To say "can't hurt your kidneys with blood sugars under 100. and won't effect your heart/kidneys." is not totaly true. Blood sugars below 70 are dangerous. Huge rises and lows (spikes) can be harmful too.
In regards to your headaches and depression that may be from many factors, one is your diet, the type of foods you’re eating. You need to see a doctor and have blood test run to determine if you’re a diabetic in waiting, your food allergies, and for medication to help your depression.
Good luck.
