Diabetologist 's  Response
Dear sir

As per your query, you want to know who to bring blood sugars under control in patient with type 1 diabetes.

As the disease nature by itself it is dependent on insulin for survival. Insulin is very much needed for control of blood sugars, especially regular insulin and needs frequent blood sugars monitoring.

Secondly when ever a type 1 diabetes patient complaints of abdominal pain and vomiting, it is very much essential to check for ketone bodies and dehydration.

So please check for it once.

Thanks
