Hi there,

My son was diagnosed last week, he is nearly 12 years old. Although he had been ill for sometime he was 'well' and he only had 2 days off school! Our DSN said that it was important to get back to routine as his blood glucose level was v high and sitting in bed wasn't going to help! I am still worried because his levels are still min 15mmols!

Hope your son is on his way to a full recovery? Any tips on how long it took to stablise him?

Thanks
Emma

Hi Emma

Take a look at www.childrenwithdiabetesuk.org there will be lots of info on there for you which hopefully will help. There is also an email group for parents of children with diabetes, it is a real lifesaver and a few of us here belong to it.
