I appreciate your info. Another question, I was just diagnosed with diabetes and the Dr. prescribe Dia micron Mr. it been two weeks but I used it yet I've been exercising and eating and testing myself. Am I doing the right thing. First I went to take a CBC and sugar test and my blood count was 10 and the sugar test-145 so I was told to come for a fasting 2 hrs glucose and that was 260.
Thanks in advance.

The one sided facial pain could be due to sinusitis, if it is accompanied by nasal stuffiness and sometimes a post nasal drip. It could also be due to tooth infections, impacted tooth or skin infections. The others are migrainous headaches and those caused due to brain disorders, disorders of the eyes , neck or ears to name a few. To find a cure you need to consult your primary care physician for proper assessment. In the meantime take OTC naproxen for relief from pain.
