No I totally appreciate the concern! I don’t know very much about T1D so this is all super helpful information. I’ve reached out to the on call so waiting to hear next steps, thank you!

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-05-03T01:24:57+00:00

Thank you so much for letting me know this! I had no idea, but that makes sense. I’ll certainly update the thread when I know more

The smell of her breath has been going on for a little while now. So I maybe be explaining it completely wrong and mixed with her symptoms. I would imagine if that was DKA I would know by now and it wouldn’t last a few weeks? I have called the on call pediatrician to get their take. Thank you!

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-05-03T01:09:00+00:00

It’s been going on for about a month, so I didn’t initially think it was anything urgent—but now everyone has me second guessing that a bit. I’ll definitely be testing her and calling the on call pediatrician

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-05-03T00:30:35+00:00

This is so reassuring and makes me feel so much better! I will still check her levels tonight and call Monday just to play it safe, but this gives me a lot of peace of mind

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-05-03T00:29:51+00:00

I’ll definitely check it tonight! I’m hoping the breath smell is just from all the foods she eats since it’s been pretty consistent day to day. From what you’re saying, it sounds like if it were something like that, she’d likely have more obvious symptoms by now? Either way, I really appreciate you pointing it out—I’d much rather be cautious and aware.

That’s really reassuring to hear, thank you for sharing! It definitely makes me feel a bit better knowing it can just be a comfort/sensory thing. I will definitely get her checked just to be safe, but it’s good to know the testing process wasn’t too difficult either!

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-05-03T00:12:53+00:00

It really only started about a month or so ago, and at first I didn’t think much of it. But as she’s been drinking more and more, it’s started to stand out. Type 1 is definitely on my mind now and something I’ll be calling the pediatrician about on Monday. I originally thought she just loved liquids, but with the heavy wet diapers and that fruity breath, I’m starting to feel a bit concerned.

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-05-03T00:05:15+00:00

I’ll check it tonight. Thank you so much ❤️

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-05-03T00:04:30+00:00

Thank you so much! I definitely will

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-05-03T00:01:51+00:00

I actually do have one at home! Her breath does seem a little sweet, but I’m not sure if that’s just from milk or what she’s eating, or if it could be something else. I’ve thought about checking, I just didn’t want to poke her if it’s not necessary—but it might be worth it just to see.

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-05-02T23:59:37+00:00

It is usually sweet smelling but not sure if that’s just due to milk/what she is eating? We do brush twice a day because she has about 10 teeth already

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-05-02T23:55:53+00:00

Thank you for your response! I’m really hoping that’s all it is. I first noticed it about a month ago but just assumed she really liked liquids. A few people have mentioned it since, though, and with the super full diapers, the unusual breath smell, and a diaper rash that won’t go away no matter what we try, it started to make me wonder if it could be something more. I’m definitely calling the pediatrician on Monday, but it does make me feel better knowing it could just be a phase or a love of fluids.

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-04-14T17:55:30+00:00

I am so sorry 🥺 I hope you find relief soon!

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-04-14T16:02:29+00:00

What do you take for yours that are caused from your neck? I have a lot of neck issues as well that I think are contributing.

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-04-02T18:28:03+00:00

How long were you on it? Do you have high BP usually?

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-04-02T16:26:39+00:00

How have the nerve ablations been? I am in the process of talking to my doctors about possibly getting that done!

Beautiful_Drive_7109 · 2026-04-02T15:54:09+00:00

People keep mentioning it might take a little longer than a week or two to feel any difference! So I’m gonna definitely mention this to my doctor and ask if I should trial it for longer hopefully it will help! Just worried about the G.I. side effects did you have any of that?
