[QUOTE="Methuselah, post: 569939, member: 12725"] Hi Malika, When the doctor ordered the lab tests, did they order the antibody test for Type 1 diabetes, too? If your son took a sip of a drink or snuck a piece of candy before the test, it will raise his glucose numbers. If you're concerned, get a glucometer and test him the minute he gets up in the morn before he steps out of bed to see if his sugars are normal. You can also test him two hours after he finishes eating his main meals. (Just don't let him have anything but water until the test.) Are the liver function tests in range just on the low or high end of normal? A slightly abnormal liver function tests is usually nothing. Something a simple as a seat belt pushing against the liver due to an abrupt stop can create an out of range result. [/QUOTE]
