Tylenol or Advil Okay ?
I was wondering if anyone can tell me if Tylenol or Advil is okay to give my daughter ( Type I ) ? She has a headache, and this is a question I didnt think to ask the Dr.
Also, thanks everyone for your encouraging words. I am glad to hear this will eventually get easier for us.

Either one is ok to give to her. Hope she feels better soon.

Either is ok in regards to diabetes. If you use a CGMS, we were told to either avoid Tylenol or shut the CGMS off (dexcom) during the 6 hour period after because it will think it's glucose and give you false readings.

Either is fine to use, they have a very small amount of sugar in them. I hope she feels better soon!

As everyone has said, either is safe. I just wanted to add that headaches can be a sign of being high or low...At least for my son
 I hope she feels better too and welcome to the forums

We use either, but as a couple others have added, this can be a sign of a low or high. This happens to Jordan. Inevitably every time he has a headache his numbers are high or he is dropping quickly.
How are her numbers? I hope she is feeling better soon!
