I've been having a lot of gastro problems. i took pepto and my bs is dropping even after lowering my insulin, drinking apple juice and having saltines w/sugar jelly. it's like the pepto is coating the gut not allowing the sugar in??

This is hard to answer. More details are needed. Gastrointestinal problems can cause poor absorption of food which can lower blood sugar.
