Hi everyone..I'm a member of another website and asked this question there too.i have coeliac disease as well as diabetes.i try to inject all around my belly and thighs as was advised to.my stomach had gone so big it was put down to my coeliac.but being on a gluten free diet hasn't helped at all.whats worse is that it's become bigger and also from above so my stomach and belly both look horrendous and like I'm 6 months pregnant! Do you think it could be to do with my insulin Injecting?
 
I have been injecting insulin for 14 years and have not experienced a "big belly".
But we are all different.
 
Thanks for your reply helensaramay but the way uve described my "big belly" wasn't a very nice way.id rather you didn't reply
