So I upped smeagols dose today to 1.75 his numbers have been the BEST ONES YET! my question is do I give him his shot? When do I know when to skip? Or give half? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11Y0zUqdk1fbAP1Dt27f5iO2N0htmJugsZpFDdTKjgZc
Are you doing TR or SLGS? And also post what kitty is at pmps, put in you title like this Pmps xxx so we all can see it
Nice response to the dose increase. Can you get a +11 to see if is rising or still dropping and then post? And as Bella's mom asked, are you following TR or SLGS? ETA: How long till +11?
They are dosing methods or protocols to follow. TR is more aggressive than Start Low Go Slow ( SLGS) and has a better chance for getting kitty into remission. http://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/...-low-go-slow-slgs-tight-regulation-tr.210110/ If Smeags isn't up over 150 by PMPS time, can you stall without feeding for 30 minutes to see if he will rise. When you retest, if not, and it's important to stay on your present schedule, then I would skip. If you have the luxury to stall 20 more minutes without feeding then grab another test. If 150 or over, shoot. I will look for you.
Yes I will stall thank you so much for getting back to me. This all makes me so nervous still. I will let you guys know what he is at at 8
Read the link I sent you It tells the difference between them One is tight regulation and it’s more aggressive The other is start low go slow
PMPS was 131 I gave him his Shot as I know it will rise with food. I will be closly monitoring him throughout the night.
Good job momma! He is on the rise. The +2 test is very telling. If it is the same or lower than the PMPS number then it could be an active cycle and more testing required. When you get a chance, can you connect your SS to your signature so that it is always available to peeps that are giving you dosing advice. And if you could add when Smeags was diagnosed and if there are any other medical issues like hyperthyroid, kidney disease or any past DKA. If you need any assistance this cycle, just change your title to reflect that you need help. I suspect it will be a quiet cycle and he will go into bounce mode but you should know better after you get the +2.
Ok! Thank you I added his SS to signature. He had great numbers last night all blue and one yellow. He is acting like a kitten today. We are estatic ❤️
