Gail has had her appointment with the doctor first thing he did was measure her ketones and immediately said you have Ketoacidosis he could even smell it, so she has been sent straight to the medical assessment unit and is waiting for a bed, when i hear more i'll update x

What is ketoacidodis?

It's acid that remains in your body and then starts burning fat. It can be very dangerous and can lead to a Diabetic Coma. Newly diagnoised often end up in hospital because the BS has been high for a while and then ketoacidodis sets in . My little grandaughter Grace was diagnoised 10 days ago and she had ketones.
