My 10 year old child is suffering from diabetes and depends on insulin. He is also suffering from weight loss and looseness of the skin. I want your suggestions for an insulin free life. Can we go for pancreas drafting or transplant? Any other new invention?

When I talked to this child’s endocrinologist for follow-up, he replied that the DKA was the reason her HbA1c was elevated so high. Is that so? I thought it was a test of average glucose. Can you find any supporting documentation for his answer?

I got diagnosed with diabetes, and a friend has a tester called a [brand name of a meter]. How can I get one?

My three and one-half year old constantly asks for something to drink and urinates frequently. None of my other children ever drank so much nor were they hard to potty train. Should I have her tested and how would they test her?

My six year old daughter recently changed from Ultralente to Lantus/glargine as her basal insulin. Is there any particular reason that the injection must be at bedtime?
