how do I know if the ketones are too high ?

[Guest guest]

Hi All

Harry (3) has been on the KG diet for 3 weeks now and Im worried that

he might be making too may ketones. Urine tests at 5pm before evening

meal are going ++++ instantly. Often when we take a blood test his

ketones will be around 4.8mmol/L. His behaviour is not brilliant and

he is having seizures still. He is needing naps more and quite

sneezy. Also he is hot at night. Now and again face looks flushed.

I know our dietitian and neuro are back tomorrow (we have been

stranded for 2 weeks..) but I'm keen to know whether the ketones seem

just too high,

Many thanks

a (mum to Harry 3 and suffering with MAE-- all of us that is !
