Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. To evaluate for Stomach ache, require more detailed history and other investigations done.
2. Sugar level variation is dependent on diet and medications.
3. Check his diet and also check for insulin or c-peptide levels. If there is too much variation, some amount of stress or infection could be playing a role. Get his serum insulin levels and a hemogram done for further evaluation.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
