Prayers for us. Type 1 sucks! We were up hours last night battling high glucose for Katie. Her monitor beeps every 5 minutes after she reaches 250 ... and she was over 300 for a chunk of time. We had just replaced her pump, so we wondered if the insulin was bad, or maybe the replacement pump was bad… at any rate… sleep was elusive. Kept her home today to monitor her. We called the Dr who adjusted levels and she’s been good all day. 10:30 hits and we were just notified of high glucose again. Duncan is dosing her now, which we should not need to do (pump should do it all automatically). We just need some rest and for her blood sugar to level out again. Type one is manageable, but it isn’t easy or straight forward and it has forever changed our lives.
*11:20 and she is now at 325… calling the Dr in the morning, but we are still up.
