Hypoglycemia And the Stomach Flu Posted: 12-13-05 17:52pm
Can anyone give a mom of a 4 year old some
help on how I should handle the stomach
flu for a severely hypo 4 year old boy.
The last two times my son had the stomach
flu he ended up in the hospital in a
ketonic state (the last time he almost
went into coma). When he gets the
stomach flu it just spirals out of
control. I follow what the doctors tell
me but I think his body is just different.
Any advice would be greatly
appreciated. He also is allergic to
almost all food so many things are out of
the question (i.E.-pedialyte). He will
not drink fruit juice or sprite or
anything sweet. I kind of think giving
him anything sugary really makes the
situation worse. I would love to give
him cheese or meat. Any suggestions?
Thanks so much!!

Read the maker's diet and put him on the
program. Our modern food industry is not
too good for these types of things. May
get pricey, but it's worth it, trust me.
