My six year old daughter was diagnosed with type 1 the end of January this year and we have had fairly good control of her sugar levels. Today, she fell at school and fractured her arm. At the time of the accident, her levels were good, but, since then, have been 240 mg/dl [13.3 mmol/L] and higher. Would this be common for this type of accident? Should I adjust her insulin or wait and watch for a while?
