Is diarrhea a side effect because I raised my does of insulin and my body isn't use to it ?
 
Hi,

In 42.5 years of injecting insulin. I wouldn't say bad guts is a side effect of insulin dosage.
Dodgy cross contaminated food or a bug from a contaminated surface.?

Can i ask what insulin you are prescribed & how long you have been diagnosed?

Forgot to ask. Maybe what you have recently eaten? It's source?

Not a usual side effect as fa as I know. You could have caught a bug. I'd wait and see what happens in the next few days, unless you feel sick and depending on how bad the diarrhea is.
Make sure you don't get dehydrated!
 
Also, if you have a bug and are hanging about in the loo a lot, test your bloods regularly. They have a horrible tendency to jump about when we have any sort of llurgy.
