Guest guest Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 Tammy, Is she spilling ketones? Do you know the routine if she is? If she cannot keep food down, she will most likely need to be hospitalized with D10 IV fluids. There is a specific protocol to follow. Let me know if you need it in writing.

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 I'm glad she is tolerating the Pedialyte. Since she is, you should be okay. You may want to get some form of glucose or sugar into her when you can. Pedialyte alone will not help blood sugar levels. You can even buy glucose gel that you can squeeze between her cheek and gums. It is immediately absorbed by the body. Hope she feels better soon!
