Help for my 16 year old
Thursday, May 31st, 2007Hello there. My daughter was just diagnosed in August. She is on 11
units of Lantus one time a day. Her numbers have been all over the
board. She will be 267 one time and drop quickly to 50 - 60’s. Since
she has been having a lot over the 24o mark the doctor said we could
adjust her insulin up or down a unit. However, since she still has
the lows I am a little worried about that without seeing the doctor
first. When she plays basketball she will go high during a game and
crash afterwards too. It seems like a mix of short term and the long
term would be better than just adjusting the lantus dose. What would
you do?
