You don't need to eat at regular times, not with modern insulins. Are you on a rapid acting and something like lantus or levemir?
I would check out your library and see if you can get a copy of the book I already mentioned.

My name is Jessica Smith and I am a former JDRF employee, from the Northern California Inland Chapter, as well as a T1D myself. I am currently a graduate student at DePaul University's School of Public Service finishing my Master in Nonprofit Management degree. For my thesis project, I am examining the support network of teenagers living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and the effect this support has on their health management.
This survey is intended for adults, 18 years and older, who have been living with T1D since childhood; you will be asked to reflect back on the support you received, and how you managed your diabetes during your teenage years, ages 12-17.
In this study, you will be asked to complete an electronic survey. In order to ensure that all information will remain confidential, please do not include your name. Your participation in this study is completely voluntary and you are free to withdraw your participation at any time. If you choose to participate in this project, please answer all questions as honestly as possible. The following questionnaire should take no more than 10minutes to complete. There is no compensation for responding, nor is there any known risk.
Thank you for taking the time to assist me in my educational endeavors. The data collected will provide useful information regarding teenagers living with T1D. Completion of the survey will indicate your willingness to participate in this study. If you require additional information or have questions, please contact me at the information listed below.
Thank you again.
Sincerely,
Jessica A. Smith

The gastro can be a real pain. I still have it, but it's not as bad. I found it got better after my kidney transplant.
Feel free to vent with me if you need to. I've been there, and done that.

I'm not familiar with American law, but I do know that not a lot of people visit this board.
Have you tried tudiabetes? I believe there is also a board somewhere called parents of diabetic children (or something similar)
good luck, your son has the right to an education despite his medical condition, I hope things work outView Thread
The bottom line is that many folks have success with this. Talk to your endo about it and see what he/she has to say. Keep us posted.

bottom line is - we both have to be on top of things and live our lives happy and healthy the best we can.

I once asked my CDE if the lipitor could be increasing my blood sugar, becasue on the nights I forget to take it my fasting sugar is good..and they said no. I plan on arming myself with this new information when I go. What's the lesser of 2 evils, lipitor protecting my heart, or higher blood sugar which in turn will lead to increased risk of heart disease.View Thread

Have you thought about trying to get an insulin pump? That can help with this tremendously by customizing insulin delivery overnight.

I agree with MrsCora01 that it sounds like someone is not treating her correctly, and this is exactly what happened to me. I was VERY sick until I decided that I needed to get a second opinion. When I went to an endocrinologist, my blood sugars were brought under control almost immediately. FIND A DIFFERENT DOCTOR!View Thread
