[QUOTE="GrantGam, post: 1363277, member: 295621"] As far as I'm aware, it's primarily down to damaged nerves. Just like your feet can become an issue, so can your insides. I guess there are a lot of nerve endings in there which can potentially get damaged. The good news is that proper BG management can help to heavily minimise the risk of any nerve damage occurring in the first place. Diabetes is an unfortunate lottery however, so some may be more susceptible to gastrointestinal issues than others. It's just the roll of the dice... I found this for you, might answer a few of your questions regarding gastro issues:) [URL]http://journal.diabetes.org/clinicaldiabetes/V18N42000/pg148.htm[/URL] EDIT to add - I don't know whether any of the above is applicable to things such as wind, cramps, bloating, etc...
