[QUOTE="Jen&Khaleb, post: 209345, member: 13077"] [b]Re: keytones[/b] I have had my son with perfectly good blood sugar and blood ketones of 3.4 and going into DKA (thirsty mainly). He had been quite ill for a few days before and not eaten very much so was burning fat for energy as he didn't have access to glucose. In a person with Type 1 diabetes DKA can be very dangerous. Even with low blood sugar high ketone levels need to be dealt with. [/QUOTE]
