I have had diabetes about 30 years and am worried my children will get it. So, I checked my son’s blood sugar when he was acting “off.” It was actually low. How concerned should I be?

My son was spilling ketones with an elevated blood sugar last night so we gave him water and extra insulin. Overnight he was low. Ketones returned this morning. Was this just due to dehydration? At what point do I call the doctor? I’m confused by the off and on ketones.

My son’s dad smokes a pipe in his home affecting my son’s type 1 and allergies. Can you provide me with information about the effects of the smoke? My son no longer wants to visit his dad, but a therapist says he should be forced to go.

After my insurance changed me from Apidra to Humalog, I began experiencing nighttime seizures. Have you heard of others who are extra sensitive to Humalog?

My teen son is lonely and depressed, has developed bad habits, including rage bolusing. He refuses to go to therapy. What do you recommend?

My teenaged daughter’s A1c is its highest. She often forgets to bolus and grazes a lot. Do all teens rebel against diabetes? How can I help her understand the importance of bolusing and a proper diet?

In the past eight months, our young daughter has been having occasional troubling night time lows. We have been able to avoid glucagon, but she has been in a seizure-like state. Are such episodes common?

Because her blood sugars are often in range, could our daughter have type 2, not type 1? How do we know if she is still producing insulin? Is it safe to stop insulin for 24 hours to see what her “natural” blood sugar is?

Last week, my daughter’s microalbumin level was very elevated after about three years on lisinopril. What do I need to ask the nephrologist about at her upcoming visit?

My daughter has issues with hygiene, self-esteem, petty thefts, possibly depression, maybe related to her diabetes. Where can we find help for her?
