So meter can read 120 when she is actually dropping fast. Dexcom has enlightened us how quickly they can drop. Other day 130 two arrows going down and 2 units IOB. Ran up to get sliced fruit to cover the two units (20 grams). Five minutes later, low on the cgms meter. Checked on glucometer before eating and she was 36!

I have found over the yrs that some school nurses want to sit on their butt and not have to do anything but clean a clinic and the rest of the day is hers . Not saying all school nurses , just the ones I have run into . I would have blown up at that school nurse and let her have it with both phoneladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15941892184117571313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1819597440208176933.post-80908038072611885872009-09-09T22:42:19.596-07:002009-09-09T22:42:19.596-07:00Ehum...let's hope that insensitive comments fr...Ehum...let's hope that insensitive comments from an otherwise wonderful nurse don't become a habit...<br /><br />You guys are awesome!

He would continually recheck and and the number was always fine. The answer? When he felt that way we would give him a snack and bolus for 1/2 the carbs. Once he ate something, (even if it was just a few crackers,) he would always feel better.Merihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09752883120541646427noreply@blogger.com
