Hi - I seem to be asking questions all the time and I sm so grateful for everyones replies. It helps me not feel so lost with caring for my son (diagnosed t1' august 2010" age 2.5)
So...here it is...
The last couple of days my son has been really, really irritable, screaming at us, hitting out and getting very upset about things. This is not his natural temperament. He has done his best to enjoy himself but has a very short fuse. He is also crying and whimpering in his sleep and very restless. He has developed a very sore rash on is face (used to have wonderful skin), and his soles of his feet are very dry, and today cracked and started to bleed. His glucose levels have been higher than normal following general anaesthetic and dental surgery two weeks ago, but he has also had not so high readings and some lows in the 1.7-2.8 range. I don't know what to use to relieve the rash or treat the feet and I'm at a loss...maybe it is all connected?
