hi my son is type 1 and he is nearly six he has been diabetic since he was 2. we have just found out he has epilepsy aswell and i have been told 1 of his triggers is having a hypo which he always seems to have. we are in constant touch with his nurses but things just dont get much better. he is very sensitive to his insulin to little he rockets up, too much he gos below 4. he has novorapid 3 times aday and levemir 2 times aday, he keeps on getting the lumps in injection places even thou we rotate in legs bum and arms(he will not let us do it in his belly). his hba1c is always around 8% which isnt good. i am at my wits end im so scared for his future if we dont get him under control. i have asked about an insulin pump but i just keep getting told not yet. does anyone have this problem cause i dont know anyone else with diabetes and will it get easier with age?
