Kaden went into the doctor today for his 3 month check-up. Everything went well. His A1c was in the normal range for his age. Yeah! At the last visit his A1c was high, not a good thing. We had dealt with insulin that was bad. His body had not been reacting to his shots so two vials later we had insulin that was working but it had already done its damage to his A1c and had to make some changes. The changes the doctor made paid off because he was good again. It is a relief as a mother to see that you have got him in the range his A1c is suppose to be in. Now if I can get him over his cold so we don't have those sick day high glucose numbers.
It is amazing what the stress of a sickness can do to glucose numbers but it can be expected. The doctor wasn't too worried and wants me to try to up his lantus a to a 1/2u more. We will give that a try tomorrow and hope it doesn't crash him. It is no fun to get up in the middle of the night with a 2yr old that has dangerously low numbers and have to stay up until his glucose numbers are back in the safe range. We both are grumpy and tired when we get up in the morning.
