Type1 Diabetes--need help

[rachit1984]

Hello Everyone,

Need your advise. Recently, my princess was diagnosed with TYPE 1 Diabetes. Currently, she gets prick 4 times (3 hammas and 1 lantas). Is there a way to control and get rid of? Her reading is always in range of 200-400.

Hi rachit1984 ,

Welcome to the group. Please feel free to continue to post and comment your postings/comments and questions, take a look at the polls on the Polls section, comment on the other member's postings and comments, attend the monthly meetings (held one weekend a month) and of course, meet the rest of the members.

As for the question about the numbers being in the 200-400 range.... Has the doctor said to count carbs. for each snack and meal? Did the doctor suggest to be on a sliding scale for the insulin dosages? How old is your daughter? What was her A1c (3-4 month reading of blood sugar)? Did the doctor give you a testing monitor and kit to test each day? Is she on any other medications?
