:(hi guys another trip to A&E yesterday graham started not being very well on wednesday night i thought was only a bit of cold playing with his friend the day before and a lots of trip to the toilet started friday night and saturday night call the children unit because i was worried about how could affect his blood sugar they said they cold not admitted him so A&E thank god we went in straight away very good care lots of dioralyte sachets and we wait for tomorrowfrom the gp for the result if is viral or bacterial graham was already better today NOT BEING AT SCHOOL but playing with his PS3 so i hope it want be another bad night😱
 
How horrible for you and Graham, Daniela. Glad to hear that he got good care and is starting to feel better. 🙂
 
That's terrible! Hope he's feeling better soon. And you will be able to stop stressing. I absolutely hate it when C is poorly.
 
I hope Graham is better soon. My big boy had something similar when he was small. We went to the doc who gave us some medicine and rehydration stuff and he was better in a few days.

Keep an eye on things as it can affect the sugar levels. If you are worried, it is better to seek re-assuarnce from the doctor or hospital than worry. I think as mums we worry when anything like this happens anyway, but children are pretty resilient and get over things better than we expect them to.
