Further advice

If your blood glucose level stays above 9.0 mmol/L, this is a sign that you may need more insulin. As you become more used to your diabetes, your healthcare team will teach you and your parents how to change your insulin dose in response to high blood glucose levels at different times of the day.

SEEK ADVICE IF:

. Your blood glucose tests are high for more than two days.
. Your blood glucose tests are high and you feel ill.

NEVER OMIT INSULIN

 

If you have high blood glucose and you feel sick, vomit or become drowsy, your parents must call your doctor, or take you to a hospital right away.
