Is this a good sign
| Mon, 10-25-2004 - 12:38pm |
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.
Do you think that this is a good sign

My mom also thinks this may be a sign but im not to sure, in the last year and a half my daughter has gone from having 100% great eye sight to having to wear glasses 24/7. IF she is diabetic can that be why , i knew over time it can affect your eyes but not that quick.

Julie,
Its all the carbohydrates that she is eating, not just sweet things, that is causing her blood sugar to go up. You need to be measuring the amount of carbos that she is eating. If you have a good diabetic cook book it will tell you how many carbs are in a serving a huge variety of foods. I can't offer you specific suggestions without knowing how many carbs she is supposed to be eating. They will give you that information when you have the dietitian appointment.
It is hard to tell if diabetes is effecting her eye sight. If you know why she was put in glasses perhaps I can explain. Eyes aren't my big suit!!
I hope things start to settle out for you real soon and I am anxiously waiting for the results of your new doctor's exam.
