A member asked:
Is it possible that diabeties link to bowel movement problems and inconsistent stools?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: These symptom can occur in people with automatic neuropathy. A condition in which the nerves to the bowel, bladder, stomach, and other organs are effected. I will most commonly see this in patients with type 1 diabetes that have been uncontrolled for many years and they typically have peripheral neuropathy in their feet as well.
