Strep it is

So she does have strep, along with my other 3 kids!! Her sugars were horrible last night!! She tested her sugar for bedtime 8:00 she was 386, so we gave her a extra shot (2 units) to bring her down along with Lantus. We tested her at 10:30 she was 460...crazy right? We didn't feel comfortable giving her another shot because the Novalog (insulin) would still be working. We then tested her at 2:30 and she was 320, we chose to not give her another shot, when we probably should of. She woke up this morning with her b/s at 300. So anyways it's been like that all day today too, we've given her a little extra insulin but we just can't get her numbers right!! Dr. Tim told me today that there are all kinds of hormone released when your fighting infections and they also resist insulin. So I guess it's a hopeless battle! Hoping tomorrow is a better day for her b/s, this is not helping my dream of a much better A1C!!! One day at a time right??
