Hello
I am after some advice please. My nearly four year old has been urinating more frequently the past few days so I took him to GP this morning as suspected urine infection.
I took a sample first thing and brought it in his to his appointment around 10- it came back clear from infection and also sugar.
Bit of family history so doctor did finger prick and got 12.9. He had a banana and weak diluted orange juice in doc waiting room (about 20 mins before test), had nothing else since previous night.
She phoned hospital who said probably spurious result but wanted to see him. We went in and 2.5 hours later (having not consumed anything else), was down to 3.1 on finger prick and another urine test came back clear.
No full bloods taken and no follow up been arranged. From what I have read though it seems his readings were both exceptionally high and low, and not borderline.... really looking for some advice if this seems ok or if I should be pushing for more investigation?
Only other thing was hospital said his throat was bit red and probably had a mild virus which could impact sugars... seems well in himself and no other obvious symptoms . Hes a hungry and thirsty boy but that is normal for him !
