Hi, When I started here reading about Lantus and refrigeration and how long it would last, etc., etc., it was very confusing and contradictory too....
I still use an AlphaTrak but I am using the Freestyle strips - they are less expensive (yes, I've done the comparisons, etc.) but still a significant...
I left my AT2 meter on 38 for the last batch of strips - so I'm not sure how much the coding matters. Very happy to have a cheaper alternative that...
Thanks Larry but the FSLite strips don't have a code, hence the worry. I'll just test a little every time I buy a new bottle. I don't mind keeping...
Hi Tuxedo Mom, Per your advice, I too have been experimenting with using the Freestyle Lite Butterfly strips in the Alphatrak and can add these...
I thought such behavior (post-neuter) was tied to dominance? Could there be some tension between the cats? I have a male that will attempt to mount...
Thanks again - I do usually get one or more tests during the day. And I also feel I have gotten a fair share of mini-curves and regular curves. I...
Thanks all. I hope this posts correctly. How the heck do you cancel a post you are working on? I go away and come back three hours later and it's...
Thanks Rhiannon - dropped far fast! Emmy was 156 at +14 so that became her PMPS - gave 1.5u
Greetings, Two major changes this week and I need advice. One, the dry food is gone, gone and Emmy's BG has been in the greens and blues all week...
Thanks for posting this Tuxedo Mom - it could not have been more timely! Emmy's numbers have been dropping like a rock since we threw the dry food...
Thanks so much for the advice! I don't have the 1/2 unit syringes yet so I eyeballed to 3.25 this morning. My struggle with phasing out the dry...
Thanks for the dosing advice. I scared myself today and I deserve it, by bumping up her dose to 3.5u when the vet wanted me to go to 4! We are...
Thank you all very much. I see where I should have made dose reductions. This is very helpful to get me trained on reading my own SS. If all these...
Thanks - It's good to have the normal numbers on alphatrak.
I'll compromise - I can do a +4, a +8 and +10/11 - I've already missed the +3. Cat food run :-) Just tested at 277, not expecting to see green...
Emmy has been on 3u Lantus for more than a month (we were moving her dose around prior to that). Some days she drops nicely into green and blues but...
I buy Dasuquin without a prescription from Amazon.
Thanks very much Julie! The "interesting posts from the past" were especially helpful. Emmy's nadir looks like it is very late in her cycle so that...
Thanks to all. I am skipping the shot tonight. Will monitor closely the evening watch tomorrow. I will give her 3u in morning. I can't shoot...
