My 4 year old grandson is scheduled for a 3 hour blood sugar test. They will draw his blood 6 times and give him sweet things to drink in between. He does not want to be poked even once and I am afraid he will struggle, scream and cry. Is there a simpler test for one so young and active? His only symptom is thirst and lots of liquid consumption.
