My 10 month old daughter was just diagnosed with type�1 diabetes. I understand that it takes a few weeks to regulate the insulin amount with someone so young, but her numbers are still relatively high (400-550 mg/dl [22.2-30.1 mmol/L]). I am very concerned about her growth being stunted. She was always in the 95th percentile for height. Then at nine months she had no additional growth, and she was diagnosed a few weeks later. Can this be prevented from happening?
