[QUOTE="JMK1954, post: 2396694, member: 352098"] The fact that the OP mentioned that the problem with his son's glucose levels only began recently, makes me wonder if the rising temperatures af this time of year are making a difference to his insulin's action. My levels drop like a stone as it gets warmer. My consultant says that in warmer weather insulin 'potentiates' faster, ie it works faster and more efficiently. The result can easily be a hypo. There are so many variables to consider that if can make our lives difficult. Some people need more insulin in warmer weather. We are not all the same. [/QUOTE]
