[QUOTE="Deleted member 527103, post: 2588833"] How high are your daughter's levels and have you checked her ketones? High blood sugar with ketones could risk DKA of which stomach pain is a symptom. I appreciate a keto diet may produce ketones which makes DKA more challenging to diagnose. I found I could not follow a very low carb diet as the insulin to protein ratio was too complex (in the absence of carbs, our BB ody breaks down protein to glucose). It is also unnecessary for Type 1 if you get the insulin dose correct. Have you replaced her insulin pens? It could be the pens or insulin are defective. [/QUOTE]
