Today, I'm going to offer an update on Makaylah. In the past, we've been puzzled by a few things with her. She was a huge baby, off the charts with height and weight. Yet, since she was about 15m, she's slowly fallen down the chart with plateaued growth. Of course, because of Hayden's history, this became concerning. She's also had many days of elevated blood sugar or low blood sugar. Since we started potty training her, we noticed she pees ALOT. She's also lost alot of her appetite. Never got anything but question marks about it. Well, since we've moved, her urine has a strong, sweet odor. Literally, if she sleeps without a diaper, her room smells like a spilled bottle of syrup. Crazy sweet. Well, I took her to the nurse about it. They did a fasting glucose on her and it came out borderline prediabetic/diabetic. Right on the borderline. The tests were repeated with an A1C being done. It came back normal BUT that same weekend, Makay had a VERY symptomatic morning. She was drowsy, dizzy and vomitting with a rapid, hard heartbeat. Her blood sugar was just 46. That's SCARY low. That's hospital low. Jeremy and I were very shaken by that. The clinic is sending her to endocrinology for a final answer and is considering her prediabetic and sending us to diabetes education. This is very scary. Prolly more scary than the things we know about Hayden.
To top it off, Kaitlyn is being referred to Urology because she keeps having recurring UTIs and may have Kidney Reflux. Hayden sees his new GI and Neuro in October.
When we know answers, I will update further.
