[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Omnipod poster again. I don't know how long your son has had diabetes (my daughter was diagnosed at the age of three), however, I can't emphasize enough that this could be playing a really major role with his behavior, mood, etc. Teens struggle with diabetes for many reasons, and the impact of growth hormones, etc. on the ability of insulin to regulate their blood glucose can be very significant. In the past year as my daughter has entered into full blast puberty, her insulin requirements have literally doubled. I suggest you talk to his endocrinologist about a therapist, support group, etc. for teens with diabetes.[/quote] Thanks. Yes he was diagnosed much later than that. That’s part of the issue, he knows life, sports etc before Type 1. We’ve tried to send him to camp, support groups etc he refuses. His endocrinologist encourages pump and cgm but she has told us a lot of male teens refuse. [/quote]
