Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My husband is a diabetic and for the last week or so he has had a feeling of bloating in the abdomen, pain in the lower right abdomen and no appetite. He takes humalog and metformin. He doesn t want to go to the doctor but I am really concerned. What could it be.
Hello, I have gone through your query and understand your concerns.
Based upon the symptoms as he is on insulin he needs regular checkups. Uncontrolled sugars may cause such type of symptoms. Even you need a renal function test to be done to rule out kidney diseases which are common with high sugars.
Hope this answers your query.
Regards, Dr.Alekhya..
