t so much the occasional high level, but how long it
is left high
and how often this happens.
The a1c
is the best test of overall control,
and your son
is close to the goal level. For some, going to pump therapy seems to be the best way to keep the sugar levels stable, while for others there are other insulin regimens that work best.
I am not a medical professional -- I am a long-time type 1 diabetic, diagnosed at about the same age as your son.
