Diagnosis and Symptoms

  1. Last weekend, when sick with the flu, my daughter had blood sugars over 300 mg/dl [16.7 mmol/L]. The pediatrician said they were related to the flu, but I am worried. What do you think? (10 Nov 2009)
  2. Can someone with type 1 or type 2 diabetes have an early ability to self regulate their blood sugar prior to presenting fully with the disease? (6 Nov 2009)
  3. The pediatrician has diagnosed my daughter as "borderline" diabetic. What does this mean? Is she developing diabetes? (2 Nov 2009)
  4. All three of my children had elevated fasting blood sugars at the pediatrician's office. Are their levels indicative of diabetes? (23 Oct 2009)
  5. I was diagnosed with type 2 in 1978, but it went away when I lost weight. Now, GAD testing indicates I have LADA. Did I really have type 2 before or did I really have LADA all along? (4 Oct 2009)
  6. I have received my son's laboratory test results. What do they mean? Am I correct in understanding that he may not have diabetes, but could get it? (27 Sep 2009)
  7. Recently, the doctor told us monitor our daughter and put her on a diet. Today, I was told to let her eat normally and take her to the Emergency Room when her blood sugar is high. Why should I do that? (20 Sep 2009)
  8. My teen daughter has Addison's. When ill, her blood sugars are low. When on steroids, her blood sugars are high, but she does not have diabetes. What yearly tests should she have? (8 Sep 2009)
  9. What are the tests that should be used to diagnose type 1 and what are the routine tests to check the antibodies? (8 Sep 2009)
  10. My son's earlier tests for diabetes were normal, but he recently had a seizure. Could the seizure been caused by a low sugar? (8 Sep 2009)
  11. My daughter has symptoms of diabetes, but earlier tests were normal. New tests were just done, but I don't know the results. If not diabetes, what else could she have? (7 Sep 2009)
  12. My daughter has been waking up feeling nauseous and vomiting, with her stomach calming in a few hours. Could her blood sugar be dropping while she's asleep? (4 Sep 2009)
  13. My daughter has some symptoms of diabetes. She had two elevated fasting blood sugars at home, one after a day of no sweets. What else might cause her blood sugar to be so high? (1 Sep 2009)
  14. Recently, my son has had elevated fasting blood sugars at home. Should I continue to check him, then ask for an A1c or ask for an A1c now? (27 Aug 2009)
  15. Using a meter, my son had elevated fasting and random blood sugars. Tests by the doctor were all negative for diabetes. Does this mean I should no longer worry about the high blood sugars? (27 Aug 2009)
  16. How common is it for children under the age of two to be diagnosed with type 1 diabetes? (27 Aug 2009)
  17. We have been struggling since we learned a month ago that our daughter has type 1 and just received the results of the tests our doctor sent to the U.S. What do they mean? (9 Aug 2009)
  18. My son has some of the symptoms of diabetes and had two somewhat elevated blood sugars. Other than diabetes, what might cause such elevated blood sugars? (5 Aug 2009)
  19. When I was sick, in June, my fasting blood sugar was 121 mg/dl [6.7 mmol/L]. The doctor said it could mean pre-diabetes. Is this possible? (5 Aug 2009)
  20. My toddler's blood sugar was once 40 mg/dl [2.2 mmol/L], then elevated after food. Why is she having elevated blood sugars? Is her TSH level normal? (3 Aug 2009)
