Hello,

As long as the diabetic is concern it can be well managed with proper antidiabetic drugs and diet control only thing is plasma glucose level needs to be maintained on tight rule basis, renal dysfunction is commonly associated illness, if the symptoms not being taken seriously, I would say that if the renal disease is suspected then it has to be taken seriously, renal function test is must see the status of serum creatinine, along with the ultrasonography is also necessary, now for diarrhea it is common to complain to 'Rush for defecation immediately after meal" but it is not the disease condition it is all happening due to over consciousness or hyper-peristalsis if you eat in a hurry or restlessly.


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