I have never given Nic extra med's for sports, emotionally trying times, or stress unless fever/ vomiting. I have never even heard about this....... I would have given him extra if I thought it would help......... I plan to ask the endo. in May........ I have heard of many different things on this board...... Brenda mom of 13 year old SWCAH Nic.
