Suggest Remedy For Stomach Pain During Diabetes
I am diabetic and have a pain in my stomach that seems to be triggered by my wifes body heat while we sleep. I will feel a pain that seems to go to the left side of my stomach when we sleep and not the right side. it seems to trigger gas and repositioning in bed seems to stop it. Its weird and Im always worried about worms and parasites in my body. Please tell me Im not paranoid.

dear sir I can understand your concern.
in diabetes treatment medicines like metformin,acarbose,voglibos,sitagliptin and vildagliptin will be having mild bloating sensation and abdominal discomfort.
in my opinion you might be taking some of this drugs.
Any way I suggest you to have a ultrasound abdomin to check abdominal pathology.
relax this kind if symptoms are common in people taking above medications.
nothing to worry about.
meet your treating doc and discuss regarding your drugs
