We haven't had much sleep since Wednesday morning when Emma first got sick. Our experiment last night in giving carbs overnight (with insulin) didn't help the ketones - she still woke up with them. And she had them during the day today too.
I did Emma's 2-hour and then her 3-hour after dinner check this evening - she went up between the two. That didn't surprise me, frankly, since her numbers have been wacky since she got sick
I gave her juice (I know, why give her juice when she's going up - but we need to for the ketones) and a big old correction. I went to update my spreadsheet and mentioned to Mike that if she still goes up, I'll go ahead and change her site, thinking we were coming up on 2 days for the site.
Turns out we are coming up on 3 days for the site! She has never had a site last 3 days and she is already about 5 hours past the longest site she's had.
So, I did a site change. But, this was AFTER the big old correction that I gave her. So, who knows how effective that dose will be and we'll have another night of ups and downs.
We're running a 20% increased basal overnight right now trying to keep the numbers down.
I just hope she kicks this bug soon!!
