My 18 month old son had a hypo 2 weeks ago, his levels were 0.9, first time it has happened since birth. He was put on a drip for 24 hours and had tests which were all clear, he has to go back in a month for further tests.
Yesterday he had another hypo, it was 1.3, gave him the gel and it went up to 3.3, since them I'm struggling to keep it above 3.8, he's been really lethargic, and won't really eat or drink. I gave him some lucozade which took it up to 5, but within an hour it had dropped to 3.4.
He's in bed without having anything to eat or drink, over and the hospital and they are telling me to just monitor it through the night.
He has not been diagnosed with anything at present, but wondering when would you be worried?
I'm petrified of going to sleep in case he drops overnight and I don't know.
