I took Boo to Boston today, for testing.  Everything was fine.  Her fasting blood sugar was 71 and her 2 hour post-prandial was 84, so things are looking good right now.  Big relief.

 

They are running antibody tests and a celiac panel, just to be on the safe side.  I should have those results in a couple of weeks.  In the meantime, I'm supposed to keep an eye on her and get some Diastix.  If she starts showing symptoms again, I'll check her urine for glucose.  

 

I'm relieved, of course.  I just wish I knew what was making her pee so much and giving her stomach aches all the time.   I'm going to follow up with the pediatrician tomorrow, to see if she has any other suggestions on that one.  She doens't have a kidney or bladder infection, nor does she have a UTI, so I don't know.  We'll see, I guess. 

 

And now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go collapse on the couch.  I am SO not used to getting up at 5:15 in the morning.  No amount of coffee in the world helped today.  *yaaaaaaaawn*
