I came home full of trepidation but Eddie's BG was only 324 which isn't as bad as I thought it would be given he hasn't had any insulin for 19.5...
I didn't realize how quickly the numbers could fluctuate. I guess it will take some time to build up a profile of checks to understand how his body...
That's the plan, but what should I have done differently last night? When he was ready for his dose, his reading was 128 so I didn't give him...
Eddie's reading this morning is 318 and I'm going to skip this morning's dose and keep my fingers crossed that his day goes okay. My neighbor is...
Lol, he's a bit of an ass honestly. He is responding to the treatment and returning to his old ways, which is a good sign but he's not the best...
Ok, just making sure we're on the same page. Can't wait to exhale. This is kind of exhausting
If I dose him in the morning at 530, that would only be 9 hours from tonight's 830 dose. If I skip it and wait till 5 tomorrow, that will be 20.5...
It's okay, I'd much rather you give me the low-down. My worst fear is doing something that would make his situation worse. Okay, thinking through...
I'm checking with her now to see if she's off tomorrow. If not, I'll skip tomorrow's morning shot unless he's really high in which case I'll have to...
What if his morning test shows him high? You think it would be too risky to dose him and leave him? I can ask my neighbor to check him if she's off...
Ack, I blew it. I would need to give him his dose in the morning before I leave for work at 6 AM. I remember reading that it's important to give...
Just tested him again 2 hours after dinner and he's 358 so I gave him a dose and put out some food so he can eat some more tonight. He's eating now....
I have been spending so much time reading this site this weekend that my eyeballs are crossing. It is so full of info and I will continue to absorb...
Oh sorry, it was a 911 to me, I'll be more careful. It was awesome how fast you answered. sorry sorry, didn't mean to be an alarmist.
I'm not impressed by the vet so far. I have learned sooooo much more from this website and from all of you. I have already sent an email with the...
Yes, that's the routine I am aiming for. I will test at 5:30 and feed him then as well and inject if he seems like he needs it, but I won't be...
No ketones in urine, just sugar. We were concerned by his increased appetite and losing weight and our visiting vet took blood to check on causes....
He never liked dry food anyway and he ate a lot of classic FF or Friskies Pate. I go to work early so I'll check his BG at 5:30 when I feed him. We...
Thank you for responding so quickly. Yes, we'll skip this one. We didn't change his food much. We just stopped giving him any FF that had gravy in...
Eddie was diagnosed only Friday. He has had a total of 3 doses of insulin and went from a high of 650 to just now it was 128. He is due for his...
