Hi all have anyone with type 2 had this problem. it normally kicks up 30 mins after eaten breakfast I have reported this to the doctors and they are testing my stools for any bacteria or infections also pain in Upper GI tract along with a pressure feeling in throat was just wondering if any one else had similar experience.
 
Are you on Metformin by any chance?
 
Yes one tablet a day my last hba1c results where 41 awaiting now to see dietician nurse in July to get my latest results after bloods last week.

It may be a side effect from the Metformin, but do talk it over with your nurse next month.
 
Yes I will be mentioning this to the nurse thank you rachox for the reply.

Metformin did that to me.. almost tied to the toilet for 3 weeks.
Stopped using it and went ultra low carb.
Results below...

Sounds very familliar... I tend to call that "Metformin Hell". It's what got me to explore other ways if tacking this T2 thing. Thankfully, they worked. (First low carb high fat, then keto). You could ask the doc for the slow release version...
