[QUOTE="ann34+, post: 1351632, member: 94348"] Why not contact the diabetes centre and ask if you can have a followup or a phone call so you can ask the doctor or your nurse to explain in more detail, they will have all the records, Not sure what you mean regarding him being quite low all the time - if you mean just over 4.0, the doctor may be concerned your son might just dip into a low when active, or when asleep, etc. and this, as mentioned above, can lead to hypo unawareness, and it can make someone at risk of a sudden bad hypo. Also,, if conditions/need for insulin very suddenly change short term, this could be unsafe - - there are many things that could lead to a very sudden change regarding needing less insulin, especially in children , who are still growing and developing, and who are not going to have the same levels of activity every day. The doctor may also have given the advice because, as far as i understand, it is not good for a child or young person's developing brain, in particular, to have hypos. [/QUOTE]
