Dear sir/madam
If diabetes not controlled properly and urine sugar goes 2+ then it will lead to increased urination which inturn causes dehydration.
Control your sugars at optimum levels. secondly stomach pain might be due to constipation, avoid taking dulcolax but instead take lactulose solution. but if constipation is due to impacted stools then it wont help too much. then you might need enema.
Review your medicines because some of the antidiabetic medicines will cause constipation.
Thanks
