Daughte not doing so good again
| Wed, 10-20-2004 - 3:31pm |
I had posted some time about the doctors thinking my daughter had Diabetic as well, She had high amounts of sugar in her urine as well as wetting the bed at night. After doing another 24hr urine collection test they said everything was o.k.
Well is been several months and still she is having problems, she has been passing out on and off the last year, she has been having so many test done the poor thing. She has had heart test, everything was o.k. Thank god and other smaller test’s also she was under the care of a neurologists as she gets headaches as well. Well so far everything has come back o.k. With all that. They did tell me to check her sugar levels as they thought maybe she was having low sugar and that why she was passing out, I’m hypoglycemia and my husband has Diabetic. I don’t want to stick her on and off and make her finders hurt so I told her if you don’t fill so good let me know and we ill test you. Well the last couple times she had sold me she did not fill so good she was in the high 190’s but last night was the highest. Almost 4 hours after she has got out of school I noticed she was really dinking the water like crazy “she loves water†so I tested her she was at 242 I was so shocked to see that. I even made her wash her hands before so there was nothing sweet on her fingers and before that she had only eat a tiny box of the bit size raisin at school and that was 4 hours before. She will be seeing an endo doctor at children’s hospital but they can’t see her until early July. What things should I be looking for?
So far I have noticed
She drink a lot wakes up at night because she is thirst
Get’s hyper
Headaches
Had a Hugh weight loss over the last year “the doctor is sending her to a nutrisonist

I am a diabetic for two years now. the fact that the daughthet is sent to a nutritionist is good. The mother should ask for this glucose test and tell her doctor her husband is a diabetic and she has hypogylcemia. I wish her child isn't diabetic and they find the true cause to her ill child.
Your daughter is in need of having a fasting blood sugar done by a doctor to see what they come up with such as high or low. If that happens to be on the high side than they may require
Julie,
They can't see your daughter until July? Did I read that correctly?
Unfortunately your blood sugars tests indicate that your daughter should be diagnosed as diabetic. The rule is a random blood sugar 190 or above. So I would call the endocrinologist and get her seen immediately. This waiting in my humble opinion is unreasonable.
Please get back to me a let me know what happens.
***back from doctors**** He tested her sugar and what do you know 112 so he said she's o.k i dont think you have anything to worry about he still is going to have her see the Endo doc.He is going to try to get her in sooner.

Last night she was at 256 but this morning i took it as soon as she got up and she was 128 which i was very happy to see, that gives me hope that she will be o.k
I dont like to stick her on and off i only do it when i notice her drinking a lot or she tells me she dont fill good, but this morning i did it just to see and im glade i did that was good to see.
