Hello, Juan
You don't give us many data to help you.
The first thing is to ask you if an endocrine does not take it.Does only the head doctor attend it?For his age it will be type 1, so it is a priority to take him an endocrine.
As for diarrhea and vomiting, have you tested for a celiachy?Celiacía da Diarrhea and is associated with some frequency to diabetes.
It is essential to get the diagnosis as soon as possible, in order to stop the problem.Let them take it as soon as possible.
If you tell us where the child lives, perhaps we can guide you about specialists in your area.
