[QUOTE="bulkbiker, post: 1826184, member: 219467"] I can't diagnose obviously but I would imagine that for the moment the most important thing for your son is to get the eczema under control. His sugars may be slightly elevated by the treatment for the eczema in which case if it improves and he gets less medicated then the blood sugar levels should come down a bit. If you can try to cut a few of the carbs from the diet (maybe extra sausages) that is unlikely to do any harm and could be beneficial for both conditions. I would hesitate to say that your son has "pre-diabetes" as he's probably also quite stressed with the eczema and stress also can be a cause of elevated blood sugar levels. Your doctor should be keeping a close eye on him (and I presume he is) and will probably carry out further testing in future. For the time being concentrate on the eczema. I wish you much success.
