Symptoms of hypos in child.

My son still does not show the hypos, it is true that our problem is now more of high values, but except on Monday that in Judo was tired (he had 41), the uncle is so fresh with values ​​of 50 !!
My father with hypos, it seems that he has a monumental cogorza, begins to break and sweat and open his eyes as dishes, but of course with the child I do not know how to detect them .... I worry me, because the nurses told me to fix me if I wasPale, or the lips had them without color ... but my child is mulatto so pale .... as I don't stay.
Let's see if the parents / moms help me ... how and when did your children begin to notice the hypos?
Thank you!!

Quiet it happened to me the same as your child if they are noticed but you have to know how ... example that it is sweating or that something falls to the ground or has a lot of sleep, perhaps it does not give it logical importance I would not be given eitherIf it was not diabetic but things like that can be taken as a reference for the or for example I put the straight hand in the air and if I had small tremors it was down: I do not know if it is very scientific but it was like that) to notars them.But if you notice that it does not pay much attention or that I do not find out what you say look at it ... the climbs in case you have doubts me because I put myself in a bad mood angry with the world without reason ...:) I hope it helps you a little.

Hi @zoiloyyo, I suggest that you give a look at the parents' thread, it has been opened for years and I am sure you will find good recommendations for your child, here I leave it:

Parents - Living with diabetes.Parents, couples, friends ...
Well, if the thing goes from parents (mother in this case) here I am too, although I only have 15 months of experience, I know more about this than many ...
Link

Thank you!is that there I read little by little ... there are so many pages and there are all the mixed issues ..: \ ">

It's true @zoiloyyo, parents thread issues are arising ... I suggested for a long time to do subcategories, but it was not viable ... when they are so small it is complicated that children recognize a hypo and that parentsHe realizes them ... If it is mulatto, the paleness and dark circles discarded ... once while combing my daughter, it gave me to measure her and she had 25 and she so fresh ... there are children to whom they haveThe gut hurts, or they are hungry, or verbiage, or very cold, or a lot of heat ... you have to try to associate and associate what it does and feels in the moments that it is having a hiccbe realized when the symptoms that may be having a hiccup appear.And meanwhile, measure frequently, when you put insulin, when you eat, when exercising ...

Thanks Velia, my father fuck immediately, begins to stare, sweat and speak things without coherence.I have already caught the child twice that I was short and that he told me he was tired.The other day in Judo too.We have already told the teacher to put himself on the track if he tells him again that he is tired and him to ask.
I am looking forward to consulting next Tuesday, because we started counting carbohydrates with the dietitian last week but I need to indicate the insulin guideline for the rations ... Let's see if we close the circle.
Thank you all.

Zoilo, my daughter also felt "tired" with hypos and, in strong hypos, his tongue falls asleep.
In addition, when they are low, little blood comes out in the puncture .. if they are high they have hot hands and more blood comes out ..

Of course on each site it is a world @ zoiloyyo ... not if you have put where you are and where they take you ... but when they already tell you the guideline it will be much easier to adjust to see if it does not do many hypos... However, I can get it before exercise and then, at least until you have proven what lowers him, or uploads ... it is better that he is a little high to give him a downturn ... and I suppose that thatYou will already have it controlled but a zumito in the tatami "always" ...
Good night

Thanks to both.Regina that curious about the punctures ... Anyway, the "normal" temperature of my son is always upper, it is normal for he to have hot hands, but always.
Velia, I am from Zamora but I live in Portugal, they are following him in a private hospital in Lisbon.They have told us very well about their pediatrician, in children's diabetes it must be the best in Lisbon, and that reassures me.
The school nurse measures him in the snack of 15.15 and the days he has Judo, which is at 4 pm and in the same school, because we reinforce the snack a little.And the ampa breasts that coordinate the extracurricular ones because he walks with sugar over them ... Then my husband when picking it up at 5 measures to see how it is.
I see that you worry a lot with the hypos ... It brings me through the street of bitterFather, now in January he has lost the vision of an eye almost completely ... Anyway.One day every time.
Thanks and a kiss.By the way Velia, your daughter is called as me;)

Zoiloyyo do not worry about complications, they can come ... or not ... I have spent very bad times with that issue, worried ... And it is not worth it ... there are people with a lot of a few years of evolutionand 0 complications and others Q in the debut already have.It is not worth being but peecupated by something that never arrives or if it arrives we have nothing to do ...

The important thing is to take care and live the day to day.

I also identified them with little girl

Hunger I think that we all give us hunger apart from hungIt passes :)

Zoilo, having a nurse at school is a great luck.Here are very few schools that have it, some private, but there are not in the public.I know mothers who have stopped working to be able to attend to their children .. I was lucky enough to work in the afternoon and my husband tomorrow, so the girl was never alone .., and we could go to measure her at recess ..,I ever found her playing as if nothing and with a hypo of 40.
It was very distressing to leave her alone at school, and more with that insulin NPH so unstable.
There is no comparison with the life they can already carry when they become older.

I already know that the only thing we can do are the "duties", wait, and trust in a better future for all diabetics.
Otti, I have my father's episodes, that you don't laugh at the end because it is what it is, but that if you isolate it from the disease and the severity of the moment ... I gave for a humor program ...
Regina I know, I know it's a great luck!It is also a Spanish public school abroad ... Look we do not have PT or al but we have a nurse, she is also Spanish, very very and controls it and goes to the dining room to choose the menu and put the amounts.With the cuts of Spain every year we pay more for a kind of rate of activities that we have and that we do not know very well where that money is going ... but I hope that from Madrid the nurse does not take us away .. or :-) ...
My husband has an acquaintance that leaves 3 or 4 times of work to go to measure his girl but not all bosses would understand him.

@Zoiloyyo, we are very concerned with hyper, in fact it makes me more nervous a hyper than a hicc.Angela debuted, due to the possibility of irreversible damage in neurodevelopment, fundamentally ... in fact in children up to 5 years, they tend to have them with higher than normal values, accepting hemoglobins of around 8%...
Regarding working and caring for your young son with diabetes, Ufff, what am I going to tell.In my case it has been a pity ... in my work they did not behave especially well, come on, that they behaved fatally, so for me they were the worst years of my life.An absolute sinvivir.Fortunately everything happens ...

Hi Zoiloyyo!My son is also a brunette of leather, so the way to recognize the hypo to us indicates his tiredness, sound to undone and hunger, although lately his humor also changes, he becomes impatient or gets angry for no reason.Once running with his neighbor in the garden we noticed that when he made the curves he stopped a second and instead of circulating them he made them in the form of L .. so we measured him and had it in 40!
When we were diagnosed, we were a little more than three weeks at the hospital ... There they tested how he reacted when doing certain exercises, for example when swimming, going to the park, or gymnastics ...A doctor was always going with us and controlled him before and after or every half hour, in the end they gave us some guidelines ... To swim half an hour I had to go with 200 to the pool (he has now changed and has more endurance so with 200You can stay 1 full hour, to the 150 park and the same gymnastics .... highest from there it makes no sense because if you do not feel tired and no longer enjoy the activity.Hypos, so in the snow we have to be very careful ... but as you will see every child is a world!
We also helped us write what we had to eat before playing and then how it behaved ... we have discovered that the melon, apple and watermelSport, however mango and banana is phenomenal.So in the end it is best to make a map of our child and see what works and not.

I have to tell you that I am not a veteran and that I speak of my short experience.
Much encouragement
PAM

Pam, you leave me amazed with the treatment they gave you in the hospital.They sent us home a week, with some notions of treatment, and everything else was learned by pure intuition and with the help of the glucometer, which we use much more than
what the doctor sent us, if it does not become for that .. they sent us to measure 4 times a day in alternate hours, and the fight with doctors and nurses that it was not enough ...

Mia regina!Just as you tell me we would be more lost than a donkey!We were in the hospital a lot of time and we left there that were shaking our legs for the challenge that came to us, I no longer imagine with a week!The truth that we cannot complain with the medical team we have.Our son was diagnosed when we were on vacation, we went to the emergency room because he had a very agitated breathing and vomited everything he ate ... We had previously called the pediatrician to tell him that he drank a lot of water and also filled the honeycomb, but the answerof this was that as it was summer and towards heat it was good that it was hydrated!But when I breathed badly we alarmed a lot and went to the emergency room and in the end the sugar in 525 ... we stayed there for a week and how we were out of our city (5 hours from home) a week that was more stable they moved us inAmbulance to a hospital where we live, and there a little more than two weeks ... We were attended by pediatricians in diabetes, a nutritionist, a psychologist, and a social educator.
And that you tell me about measuring only 4 times I see it impossible!I measure at least 9 times a day!But I guess things are changing ...

How much would I have given for having a psychologist and help of that type.I went to my psychiatrist on my own.How far we were from Europe.20 years ago of this .., but we still don't have that treatment for parents, which I have always thought we need.We don't even have a nurse in schools and you?

Hi Pam.That super amazing what you tell ... And that they still say that Spanish health is the best in the world !!! ... ha ha ha.Thank God, for the moment, they do not let us die on the street, but how much to improve !!! ...

Puff, what accompaniment ... We were 5 days but in my case the truth or myself wanted to be more ... I knew the measurements, the bolis, the glucometer, that smell of insulin that I concentrate since I have use reason ..I cannot say that this fell from the sky the truth.The next day I was already clicking on my son.But you get a stick the same, also knowing a lot about what this entails.We also came from many years of struggles, operations and treatments to have our child, and you ask yourself that why, why on top of one thing has had the bad luck of coming with the predisposition to diabetes in their genes ... AWe are accompanied by a diabetes specialist pediatrician and a nutritionist.At the moment, I think, I do not need other help, I have been lucky in school as there has been a nurse and that the child a month and a half was already puncturing himself only for his own inciative.
The bad mood in case the case of Lucas occurs in the high ones, anyway is a child with a lot of character ... so sometimes cheats ... Okay, it simply takes out his bad milk for a walk.
What is phenomenal is the guideline they gave you for the sport.We with Lucas reinforce the snack before sport but not much because everything goes up very fast.And the bananas, who love them, the truth is that one day I gave him one to try and he shot his glucose, so I have not given them again.
Tomorrow we have consultation to give us the portion-insulin ratio.Let's see how ...
