Well after my worries that my sons hba1c would have risen in the last 3 months I was very pleased to discover that it had actually gone down from 7.7 to 7.5!!
I printed all the data from his meter to show his consultant and he had only had 2 hypos in that period as well. They were all very pleased with him 🙂
Currently we are carb counting and use the fantastic carbs and cals book to work his insulin out but we have decided to try to keep even tighter control we are going to start measuring things more rather than relying on the pictures in the book.
We also discussed his lumpy injection sites and he has been told to completely avoid his stomach for the next 6-8 weeks and inject higher up his arms than he has been doing.
He has woken up this morning with a blood sugar of 4.5 and is at the minute sat tucking into bacon and scrambled eggs on toast............happy days!!
