Hello,

Frequent infections,increased urination or polydypsia,fluctuation in weight and constant tiredness-they all point towards possibility of diabetes mellitus.Pls get your blood sugar evaluated.If possible pls get oral GTT(glucose tolerance test)done.Raise the head end of your bed by two blocks and avoid taking your meals at least 2 hrs prior to bedtime.Avoid taking heavy,oily food and take light,bland food for some days.After a few days,you can take healthy,nutritious food.

You can also take some antacids like Mylanta and some H2 blockers like zantac or pepcid.

If still the symptoms persist then pls consult a physician and get yourself evaluated for diabetes.

Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you all are doing.
