I believe they have ordered some antiBody tests, I am unsure which ones. He has lots of medical conditions already so there could well be more than one problem. I understand starting insulin would make him have hypos more often but over time having so many hypers is going to damage his body...

Henry's half sister is diabetic. They have ran a fair few tests but not all are back yet. We have been sent home just been told they will follow up with a outpatient appointment and they are going to order an brain MRI. I'm just left in limbo. I dont want to feed him because then he is ill from...

Hi, Yes my step daughter my sons half sister is type 1 she was diagnosed at 5 when she was seriously ill. Thank you for the link. X Am guessing the fact that you've managed to check his Blood Sugars regularly enough to see the ranges, means that someone in the family is diabetic - which alone...

Good afternoon, My 4 year old son has been having issues with blood sugars. He is having hypos as low as 2.1 and hypers as high as 17 that I've catch. He has been in hospital this week with ketones 4.3 . We have left still not knowing what is going on. Because of the hypos they point blank...

Nurse just had to give him food he then went up to 3.7 . I have still not seen the consultant to discuss, the nurse spoke to his consultant tho and has made him aware of what's happening , he is seeing him on the 17th so hopefully can discuss all the possibilities then

He had a growth hormone test today was given a glucagon injection and then his blood sugars dropped to 2.2 ! Even the nurse was puzzled. Wish I knew what was going on with him .

His numbers have been all normal for last 3 days. Well blagging my head. Still not had an appointment through, seeing his consultant for growth hormone test results in 2 weeks so I will bring this up with them since no one seems in a rush to see him about this

I'm really puzzled about the numbers I'm getting. He went to 2.1 yesterday, you can tell he is low but he still talks and you wouldn't think he was too low. My step daughter is really really Ill when she drops lower than 3. I just hope they do all the tests and find out what is going on

Thank you, I certainly will. Amd no the hospital didn't mention that .

Ok I didn't know that. I will have a look tomorrow thank you

I agree but they wont do anything. I spoke to summers diabetic team hoping they would be of help but they just said to go through GP

The doctor at A&E said hes a bit old to be developing type 1 and his numbers are not consistent so it wont be that . How some doctors quality I do not know. They are so used to people going in when seriously poorly instead of checking before it gets to that stage . I've 2 monitors and I've also...

Hands definitely clean , and there are a lot of numbers in range which is why I think they are not listening. He is seeing on of his consultants for his other health issues next week so I will mention it and keep a close eye on him. I have dip sticks that check for lots of stuff , hasnt had...

He had a HBA1C last week and came back 5.3% I didn't expect that to come back abnormal as he has alot of time in range , over the last week or so I am getting more abnormal numbers and they are getting higher. Most of his fasting levels are in range but I have had 7.2 , 8.2 and 9.8 . I've...

Good afternoon, I have been finding sugar in my 4 year olds wee over the last couple of month more and more over last 2 weeks which is what prompted me to test his glucose ( his half sister is diabetic) I've had highs of up to 17.2 1 and half hour after food . I took him to hospital the...
