Diabetic gastropathy is a term that encompasses a number of neuromuscular dysfunctions of the stomach, including abnormalities of gastric contractility, tone, and myoelectrical activity in patients with diabetes. These abnormalities range from tachygastrias to antral hypomotility and frank gastroparesis

• Heartburn or reflux (backup of stomach contents into the esophagus)

• Nausea

• Vomiting (in severe cases, this may happen daily)

•Trouble controlling blood sugar

•Feeling full quickly when eating

•Abdominal bloating

•Poor appetite and weight loss

Complications

Food that stays in your stomach too long can spoil and lead to the growth of bacteria.

Take your medicines regularly. Small feeds at regular intervals, avoid carbs, avoid constipation regular exercise ,yoga and peace of mind will give you good relief.

Maybe due to disturbances in gut flora.Did you undergo any treatment with antibiotics in the recent past?You should consult a gastroenterologist,to my knowledge.

The gastric problems are due to Diabetes and eating a high carb diet. Because of uncontrolled blood sugars, there is an inflammatory reaction in intestines. That gives bloating and frequency of stool. Gut flora disturbed and sibo.

Relief from:

1) Stop wheat in any form. This will take long after stopping wheat for the inflammation in the gut to subside. Maybe, 6 months or so.

2) LCHF/KETO diet if and as much as possible.

3) The gut health is important. Eat more: Yogurt, curd, sauerkraut, etc..

Try and do convey your experience.

Hi

if otherwise, ( diabetes) you are having not much of problems other than those you mentioned, better try laxative cleaning of intestine with Epsom salt. once in 3 months.

and then check, if it gives relief.
