Keeg has truly been struggling. It breaks my heart and I wish that I could help him. He had an Aspie breakdown today. In addition to his health concerns, we've had a very traumatic outside force wreaking havoc on our life and the stress has been considerable.
Keeg's last visit with his endo showed that his A1C has dropped to 5.2. While seemingly ideal, it actual means that he is having way to many lows. His doctor has decreased his Levimir to 100 units at night, yet he is still waking from his low sugars (50s to 60s).
The endo stated that this is considered his "honeymoon" stage. The stage where it appears the pancreas is suddenly working and creating insulin. She stated that it doesn't last long, and soon we'll be battling highs again.
Keeg also has an inner ear infection and feels terrible, so he doesn't want to eat. He is alternating between excessive overwhelming hunger, and the desire not to eat at all. No good for fluctuating sugars.
We are still awaiting his appointments with his many other specialists.
We are embracing the positive and happy moments and using them as the sails to pull us into tomorrow.
With love,
his mom
