Suggest Treatment For Sulfur Belches, Heartburn And Type-2 Diabetes
I have a history of peptic ulcers that ruptured. I have recently been diagnosed with type2 diabetes also. 2 days ago i started burping that has the foul smell of rotten eggs. I am on omeprazole and carafate but still have mild heartburn in my throat. Can these foul burps be a sign of another peptic ulcer?
Thanks for your query ,
these foul burps are not sign of PUD,its because of indigestion. Inspite of taking antacids if you are still experiencing heartburn you should take liquid preparation as syrup digene thrice a day after meal ,if you are having constipation you should take laxative before sleep.
As you have been diagnosed with TYPE2 DM,you should control your blood sugar level by regular monitoring and follow up visits to your physician .
have a good day
