Guest guest Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 : Should be 1.020 or " darker " 1.015, 1.010 etc. Zaki was also all of the symptoms you are experiencing as well and he was definitely dehydrated too. When we hydrated Zaki " too much " though his keytones went lower than we wanted - but right now sounds like you need that! Good luck! I will pray the fluids to go down and better all around. I know how stressful this can be trying to get the right balance. Let me know how it goes. If he stays clammy too - I would consider getting a glucometer. so you can check to make sure he does not get hypoglycemic - we found a " decent " one for about $30.00 and I only use it when I am afraid of his blood sugar too low. But sounds like maybe just hydration as the culprit. Re: Paleness/ clammy/irritable I just checked his ketones and they were 160 at 1 pm. Is that too high? He is only on the 2:1 ratio. I'm shocked that he is reacting this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 , I think you are right and we do have the dehydration better under control. I just have to stay on top of him and let him have what he wants which is red drinks. I hate him drinking the red dye because he has ADD issues and I've heard that it can increase hyperactitivy but at this point he can have it. He is doing great on the diet. We've had more sz free days and a few am seizures on 2 days since being on it again!! Thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
