Re: Sugars - another question

[Guest guest]

Thanks for your posts Jodi and Jenn. Another quick question. When

we were at the hospital this morning - I insisted he have his sugars

checked before, during and after the CT Scan (since he hadn't had

anything to eat or drink since 11:30 pm). His first sugar prior to

going in was 92. His last sugar ( I don't know the one taken in the

CT Room) was 75. Does anyone know what the normal ranges are for

our kids? Just curious. I'm assuming that each child has " their

normal " range - but, a guideline would be beneficial.

Thanks again!
