My apologies I’m posting for traffic
my nearly 4 year old DD has recurring low blood sugars. She’s had a lot of challenges since being born at 33 weeks (twin) with IUGR.
she is still teeny tiny, for height way below the start of the growth charts.
her blood sugars have been 2.4 (at the lowest when she was very poorly) to 2.8 and usually they’re at 3 (the starting level for “normal” is 3.2)
she’s going in for a fasting blood sugar test in a couple of weeks.
she’s under an endocrinologist but all tests so far have shown that her lack of height (or growth - she only grew 0.2cm in 4 months) is not down to a hormone issue, so we’re about to be transferred to a general paediatric consultant.
we’ve had karyotype genetic tests which all came back ok.
diabetes is not suspected as her sugar levels are not going high just very low
Doctors are being very vague (as I don’t think they know at the moment) but does anyone else have experience of unexplained low blood sugars
