Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Home for a quick shower. Rushed back to ER yesterday. Ian's blood sugars dropped again - not as low - this time had paramedics meet me at home - they dropped to 63 at hospital - but, he's been stable. He also vomited again and the diahrea has started up again. On the phone right now with Dr. H's Patient Coordinator. We are still planning on going to see Dr. H. We may just end up getting there during the night - but, the hospital will not let us leave (neither will I) if he's not able to travel. But.....we are keeping the appointment - I think this is a good time to see Dr. H - while he's sick so we can develop a plan and she can see what's going on with him. Anyway, my dh is at the hospital with Ian and right now - so, better go - I'm here to shower, pack our bags for the trip and then head back to the hospital - ready to go. Met with the diabetes coorindator and bought 1 glucose monitor and she gave me an extra for free. Also talked to a nutritionist to give us ideas since he's not eating. Yes - I know - we will be very careful and I will be checking his blood sugars CONSTANTLY (per the diabetes educator) while traveling. I'm not worried. As I told Yadira - if we have to be admitted at Mt. Sanai - so be it. Miss you guys. I'm exhausted. Gotta go. Love, H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 , I'm so sorry your going through this rough time do know you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers and call me if you need anything even if it's just to vent or cry. when you leave to see Dr. H just be sure to pack and expect to stay I know her all too well and I would bet my last dollar she will admitt him. Hey never know I may see you there LOL. Chrissy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 , I hope you are able to make it to NYC to see Dr. H. If Ian is still sick and has to be admitted there, then please let me know. I will be there in a heartbeat. Jodi Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
