[|Human|] Hi, my daughter is 2 and weighs about 34 lbs. She is constantly thirsty and hungry day and night. She often wakes at night screaming for juice. They are running her glycohemoglobin and should have it back tomorrow. Her glucose yesterday was 82 after having a juice. She is not losing weight but is shaky after naps and quite irritable if we don t feed her constantly. I m concerned it s hypoglycemia. Also, she had a false positive for MCAD (newborn screen) and I think that is an unusual coincidence.
[|AI|]  Hi, welcome to this forum. Can understand your concerns. Constant hunger and thirst in a 2-year-old child can occur in diabetes, deranged renal function test. In diabetes, it is usually seen that there is increase in thirst and hunger due to which a child gains weight. In cases of deranged renal function test and increased glomerular filtration rate there is more passage of urine and water from the body which results in deny Chat Doctor. In my opinion, child should be investigated for glycosylated hemoglobin which you have already done and waiting for the reports. Kidney function tests should also be done to look for any renal cause. I hope this will help you. Take care.
