Hi my little boy (3) diagnosed in January has been quite consistent with his readings for a few weeks but then we go away on holiday in the uk and coming back his levels have gone up to really high then he has had 2 hypos in 2 days , having not had one for about 3 months.
Sat and sunday woke up at reading of 13 so we gave him a correction. At lunch time he was 17 ,yet another correction ( only half unit correction both times) then at 430pm came down to reading of 3.3 . He had also had a small packet of choc buttons 7g carbs as a snack with no insulin prior to the hypo.
Anyone got any reasoning for this !!
He is on novorapid 1 unit to 10 carbs and 1 unit of levemir at bedtime.
Today he has been to pre school ,had an apple and come home with a reading of 24 !! Some days he has a normal reading when he comes home from pre school. I dont give insulin for the snack...
Help !!!
