[quote=Anonymous]Because it's trial and error, you will want to have fast-acting sugar nearby (this will always be true). Juice boxes, fruit snacks, bananas, Swedish fish, glucose tablets, whatever your kid will be willing to take quickly. From now until there's a cure, there are only two main tasks in managing this disease: (1) take insulin -- to keep blood sugar from spiking and/or to bring down high blood sugar, or (2) consume sugar when blood sugar drops too low. Those are the two tasks -- you lower blood sugar, or you raise it. Back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. [/quote]
