Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="Jen&amp;Khaleb" data-source="post: 144730" data-attributes="member: 13077">Welcome to the forum.  I just thought Khaleb had a virus when diabetes struck and he spent several days in intensive care.  I did recognise the symptoms of diabetes but just thought the drinking was being sick.  It all happened so fast anyway.  If you want to get a better hba1c I would suggest downloading or buying a computer programme that you can type in all the levels so you can form a good picture of when levels are too high or not high enough.  Then make small changes with insulin or food to even out the highs and lows.  Any a1c below 9% would still be considered a good figure in a young child and you wouldn't want to risk having multiple or serious hypos in a quest to get what is perceived a better number. Thanks for telling your storyJen</blockquote>
