Pediatrician,  's  Response
thanks for your question. well diabetics are generally prone for infections espetially if it is not well controlled. if so then an antibiotic course followed by probiotics like dahi or yougurts or sachet econorm will be helpful.
does he always have diarrhoea espetially after wheat diet like roti or pasta...?
or does he pass fluffy stools which are difficult to flush?
and does he have any problem in gaining height and weight...
if yes then please get screening test for celiac disease that is serum tansglutaminase antibodies.
I find this answer helpful
