Wow, good to know. Thanx for that. I think it will probably only be for a few weeks but the dr. has been checking his blood and I'm sure he'll continue. I'll mention it to my son just to be safe, not the diabetes part because he tends to be his own worst enemy w/worry but I'll tell him to be sure that the dr. check his blood sugar.
