Bowel awake/ stomach whirring

[Type2"N"me]

Hi...I keep getting this very odd feeling in my bowel at night time. Typically I wake up at 3 in the morning to Pee, sometimes I Pee, go back to bed and it feels like my bowel/bladder is wide awake, the feeling of wanting to Pee after I have just gone. Sometimes I feel very bloated and sometimes very empty. Is the diabetes related ? My last hba1c was 42, I take 1 metformin a day in the morning. My daily Blood Sugar testing range is between 5 and 7...

Think this is something to seek advice for from a medical professional to be honest

I think this is something you would be better seeking medical advice for. Take care.

Interesting. I used to suffer from regular, very uncomfortable IBS, which involved a lot of enormous bloating and some pain - over thirty years of it. On being diagnosed with D2, and embarking on the low-carbohydrate diet, the IBS has vanished completely; a real blessing. If only all those doctors had suggested this during those years...
So for me at least, it seems clear that some part of the carbohydrate intake, or all of it, was the cause. If you're following a low-carbohydrate diet, I would suggest that your symptoms have another cause, and (if possible) get a full medical MOT.
