Hey,

I hope your son is all right. I know you must be worried, but it's better to get these things checked out to make sure he is ok. Better to be safe

Please let us know what happens...we'll be thinking of you both .

Take care

Hi Jim,
I know that it's hard on you to think your son may have diabetes. It's best to go ahead and find out now then to wait. I'm sure everything will be ok. Remember, either way, we are here for you. Let us know what happens.

Jim, since I was in the position a few months ago and still worry, I know what you are going through and how hard it is. I am hoping it turns out the same for you as it did for me. At one point, I took a reading of over 200 on Tyler and all his test came back normal. Every once and a while, he will have a higher reading than I would like. I only test randomly right now. He also seemed to peeing more and drinking more than normal. After the results, I figured I made it worse because I was obsessing (?) over it. I hope this turns out to be the same.

My thoughts and prayers will be with you and your son tomorrow.

Kim

Jim,

I know it must worry you, especially with him showing symptoms. I sure hope he's alright. Here's hoping he doesn't have Diabetes, but if he does, he's in the best hands possible. Please let us know, and good luck!

Thanks all. We go to the DR at 4pm today so as soon as we get any results back I will let you all know also. You guys (gals) are a great group of people.
