Since I am still pretty much a newbie, I was wondering if heart burn is part of this ride? I had heartburn a long time ago, before Zantac was OTC. LOL But since dx'ed I've had heartburn again. One tums take care of it. Now one last thing I am on MDI and every once in a while, when I inject it feels just like it looks, hurts so much like being stabbed!!! It only happens about 1-2% of the time. Anybody else?? LOL I wrote mush instead of much, corrected but still made me laugh. I am so easily amused.
Hey Keith,
I haven't experienced the heartburn you're talking about, but the every-once-in-a-while-HOLY-GOD-THAT-HURTS thing happened to me when I was on MDI. You're not alone. :)
You know I don't have diabetes, but I've been on the heartburn ride a few times! Back before Prilosec was OTC, haha. :) I've definitely "stabbed' Bug a few times.
You are the only person in here with diabetes and heartburn. You are alone in your struggle to cope with spicy foods!
:)
I get it sometimes after Sunday Fun days

Just admit it Pat -- you are burping and farting as you write this.
P.S. Keith -- poor D control can lead to digestion problems relating to gastroparesis, but I doubt you've had D long enough for that to be the problem.
I don't get heartburn but I do get that feeling like i've been stabbed sometimes after a shot. it's usually when I've injected into a tight muscle in my thigh by mistake instead of fatty part of my thigh.
before i was diagnosed, when my BG was sky-high and i was drinking gallons and gallons of water, I was having heartburn. Then I was dxed and got my BG under control, and don't deal with it anymore. Yay!

That exact same thing happened to me. I was misdiagnosed as having acid reflux disease and prescribed Nexium because my heartburn was so bad. It went away as soon as I was in the hospital getting better!
