Re: CO2 low levels!

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

I'm not sure if low CO2 levels indicates spilling ketones or not.

The only real way to tell if Emerence is spilling would be to test

her urine with Ketostix test strips. You can get them over the

counter at any pharmacy, they're in with the diabetic stuff. A

couple of cotton balls in her bedtime diaper will collect the urine

and in the morning squeeze it onto one of the strips and see if it

changes color or not.

Sorry that I don't know more about the CO2 levels, hopefully

someone else will!
