I believe they are one of those type of foods everyone reacts differently to. I suggest you talk to your medical team and ask them about it. After a lot of trial and error I have found out what works for me in regards to lentils. When I calculate the carbs in them i normally dose for only half or even a third of the carbs. You are doing a good job as a parent. I have been diagnosed around the same age as your daughter so I understand how hard it must be for you as a parent but I can assure you it does get better. It takes time and a lot of trial and error and sometimes it is just frustrating as there is no obvious reason why something went wrong. The thing is TD1 is unique to everyone and what works for one person might not work for another you have to figure out the best plan for your daughters own individual needs together wit a hopefully supportive medical team. Sorry for the long post. Good luck You got this</blockquote>
