Eldar's fight against an insidious disease
Diabetes is fraught with complications. Eldar fell ill in the summer of 2022. Due to the instability of his glucose levels, he developed malfunctions in his heart, blood vessels and liver. The doctors prescribed a number of medications to support the boy's body, and the child uses Freestyle Libre 2 sensors to monitor his glucose.
Most likely, Eldar got sick because of the stress associated with the war, as he lived in Nikopol in a damp basement under constant rocket attacks. The family had to move to Nastasivka village.
In the late summer, Inna noticed her son's severe thirst and frequent urge to go to the toilet. Eldar took a blood test for glucose levels. Soon after, the laboratory called back and asked him to come in urgently. The boy was so sick that his mother was carrying him in her arms.
Eldar was transported by ambulance to the intensive care unit in Dnipro. After stabilization, Inna and her son went to the National Children's Specialized Hospital "OKHMATDYT" for an in-depth examination. They recommended the use of sensors, as they had to pierce the fingers up to 20 times a day. One sensor works for 14 days and costs 2250 UAH. For 8 months, they will cost 36,000 UAH.
In December, Eldar complained of pain in his feet. The doctor diagnosed diabetic neuropathy and prescribed Neurobex, kinesio tapes, dressings with iodine ceramide, and Sabelnik cream. Often the boy develops acetone when the liver cannot cope. Electrolyte Humana, Lekarnita, Ukrliv, Betargin, Atoxil, Smecta, and Reo water help to eliminate it. Cardonate is prescribed to support heart function.
The glucose level is constantly fluctuating, which can lead to coma. In case of a sharp drop, you need to have Glucagen Hypokit. And blueberry paste helps to maintain sugar at average values.
The sensor does an excellent job of monitoring glucose levels, measuring it every 5 minutes and giving a signal in case of a critical situation. This allows you to minimize complications and take the necessary measures.
Now Eldar is again asking for financial assistance to buy 16 Freestyle Libre 2 sensors, which will last him for 8 months, and the necessary medicines.
