I agree, get that book. It will help you set his carb ratios, basals, everything you need. Once you get his numbers stable if you see big post breakfast spikes it might be what he is eating for breakfast. There are some foods that just don't work ...

Get the book "Pumping Insulin" by John Walsh. It will answer most, if not all, your questions.

Welcome to the family Carol Ann. See if you can upload a photo when you get a chance...and take a peek at some of the groups! I've been chatting with Julie, and thought I'd stop by and say hello!

I would suggest keeping a detailed log, as well as he can tolerate, for a while, so you can see trends better, like which foods seem to spike it, exercise, stress. also, being a teen and still growing, and the hormones adds another factor.

Carol, I'm glad that Sohair has made friends with you. She is a pediatric endocrinologist in Riyahd (Saudi). She is very well thought of here.

I also think it would be a good idea to meet with a Registered Dietician (RD), and a Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE), if you can, to make sure you are counting the carbs right, and eating the best foods.
