Hi,
Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic.
You should not miss meals while on insulin as this will cause low blood glucose leading to dizziness, rapid heart rate, and seizures.
You should take strict diabetic diet and do regular exercises.
Monitor your blood glucose levels at regular intervals.
For loose stools take oral rehydration solution to prevent dehydration.
Consult the physician for further management.
Hope I have answered your query.
Regards.
