[QUOTE="jopar, post: 160761, member: 11712"] How different are the sick day rules you'll using differe to what they are suggesting you use? There could be a problem with not so much how quick you are dealing with the ketones, but how you are dropping her blood glucose to stop the body from producing them... Dropping the BG too quickly can cause as many problems as it solves. You need to speak to her team ask for exact reasons, and come up with a plan that both you and your team are comfortable with to implement on sick days, but you also need to work with your daughter and her team to see if you can find out why she's missing her insulin injections, finding a way forward in helping her to tackle this and take better control of her diabetes to prevent her getting into this situation in the first place...
