General & Family Physician,  's  Response
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Uncontrolled diabetes can affect the stomach though this is usually movement of the stomach or intestines (causes diarrhea or constipation).

He may have ulcers if he had a previous history of reflux which would require reflux medication. Testing for the h pylori bacteria which can worsen reflux symptoms, may also be needed.
If this bacteria is found, he would also need a course of antibiotics.

It would be best for him to be assessed.
