What Causes Persistent Vomiting In A Diabetic?

My husband has been sick all day. He's vomited 3 times and he has pain on his left side of his abdomen. Could that be his gallbladder? We were in Fishers, IN over the week-end at our son's home and we both ate the same things and I'm fine. He does have diabetes but it is controlled.

Diabetologist,  's  Response
Hello,

I have gone through the details and understand the concern. It appears the food taken has probably caused the gastric problem, may be due to increased acidity and reflux. In a person with diabetes this kind of a condition can develop due to sluggish stomach. It is better if he takes a drug like Omeprazole with Domperidone. Plus stick to a bland diet for next few days, strict blood glucose control is also to be maintained, and should avoid smoking and alcohol.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Prabhakar Laxman Jathar
