Her gut immunity is very low. So we need to work on that. Secondly she might be having electrolyte imbalance. This may be due to reduced gut immunity. She needs to be treated in this line. Secondly it might be due to any food intolerance. This has to be ruled out. Thirdly she might be having worm infestation or amoebiasis. You need to do a stool examination for this. Fourthly pancreatitis may be a possibility. You need to do serum amylase and serum lipase to rule out. Last but not the least this is a common phenomenon with chronic long term diabetes called diabetic gastroparesis with diarrhoea. For further information and advise you may chat personally with an online consultation on this platform. Thank you.

May be she is having gluten allergy which is found in wheat. Try to avoid these.
