Message: <blockquote data-quote="Elle Rose" data-source="post: 411428" data-attributes="member: 79139">I have been admitted to hospital a few times over the last year with ketones and high glucose levels, even though i do my best to keep them under control its always illness related.The second time i went into a&e the DOCTOR said that a ketone level of 2.0 is normal! which is obviously wrong. I told the doctor that i should be giving my self some insulin to bring my glucose levels down but they never seem to listen or tell me to give myself anymore insulin. many of them have never even seen an insulin pump before.I see where your coming from, doctors and nurses in these departments should know more about diabetes, especially when people are seriously ill with it because the a&e department will be the first to deal with these patients.</blockquote>
