[QUOTE="JJ4, post: 130501, member: 13875"] 5.5 year old. Frequent headaches (every other day at least). Had a few accidents at night but not an every night thing. A few little accidents recently in the day also. Has complained of not being able to see properly on occassion, thought it was tiredness at the time even though it was a daytime complaint. Itchy skin on thighs and underarms. Behaviour unstable - weepy and moody. Eating everything and anything in sight - even considered he had worms at one point. Complaining on and off recently of pains in his legs (thought to be growing pains but not where they are usually associated) and in his big toe of all places! Might not be relevant but throwing it all out there. Not weeing more than usual though and drinking slightly more than usual but not alarmingly so. No idea about weight loss apparently as he's a bigger lad, very tall and top end of chart for weight so it probably wouldn't be as noticeable than in a much leaner child of the same age. BS in one 24 hour period: 10.7 @ 11:00am, 8.5 @ 1:30pm, 10.7 @ 3pm, 8.3 @ 6pm [b]but 5.7 @ 10pm?[/b] I know one day of results isn't ideal for seeing any bigger picture but that's all I was given. I think I may get a fasting one to add to this in the morning. Sound worrying or not? I know only a Dr can diagnose ( :wink: ) but I said I'd ask here for opinions from those who've BTDT. :) [/QUOTE]
