[QUOTE="Sarah_1_2_3, post: 114940, member: 24209"] Hi Sue, Thankyou so very much for that information. It is more than the hospital gave us. I made an app 2day for him with an very highly rated and experienced doc at our practice, who was full of information and was disapointed that we were treated as we were and confused as to why we were not given more information. I have gotten ketosix and tested him just before his supper. It was at 3mmol (by my estimate of the range of colour - it only shows 4 and 0.5, but was very close to the colour of 4). When I tested his bro, myself and my T1 husband we all showed 0. Is this normal? He seems well enough, not himself, as being a mother you will know when your child 'isn't right'. He is drinking as usual, and weeing, although maybe not quite so much as usual. He is also eating more than normal 2day if this is relevant. My idea after that test being that I will keep an eye on his levels of ketone over the next day or 2 and see what they are like. I'm confused to say the least. Concerned about him and the chance that we might miss something. I dont want to be neurotic about it either. But its ever so tempting to check him thro the night. One minute he seems fine the next he is sleepy and doesnt want to do anything other than sit there. Thankyou again for your advice and experience. Its so nice to know there are others out ther who have been in similar situations Sarah x [/QUOTE]
