I have to order them online and can usually pick them up at the store a day or two later. They're rarely in stock at my store :(
I use the ReliOn Confirm and didn't realize how much I loved it until I ran out of test strips and Walmart was out of them, so I had to use our...
Hi all. I've had Tommy doing the 1.5 U of Vetsulin for about 2 weeks. His numbers aren't getting any lower - should I increase his dosage to 2 U? I...
So even if he's in the mid 100s but rising, it would be ok to shoot his same dose?
Weird. It's 341 an hour and a half later. Maybe the meter messed up. I will give him his shot now.
I fed him an hour ago and am going to check his BG right now.
Tommy's BG is 148 tonight. It's never been this low pre shot before. I have been giving him 1.5 U of Vetsulin at each shot; should I lower the dose?
I just bought the YA zero for all my kitties to try out as Tommy seems to be eating their dry foods and this seems to be the best option (in addition...
Welcome! Your fur babies are super cute! I am fairly new here and this forum has been tremendously helpful :cat:
Will do, thank you!
Tommy was diagnosed on Dec 22, 2016 and have been giving him insulin since then. I didn't know that Vetsulin "pooped out" after 28 days. Is it time...
Thanks! His AMPS was 367 today so I eyeballed a 1.25 before I read this (there's no half units on our syringes-will keep that in mind next time)....
Thank you! I will try to get a reading before bed. I will also try that dose in the morning if his BG is high. Thanks again :)
Looks like I was being optimistic. His PM pre shot was 315. I was able to get 5 BG readings today. Does it look like his diabetes is controlled...
I'm using a human one, the ReliOn confirm. His +4 was 198 so I'll keep checking throughout the day.
Hi everyone! So I'm trying test Tommy every 2 hours while I'm home all day this weekend (at least waking hours and probably +2 after PM shot). His BG...
Welcome! I'm fairly new here as well. This community has helped me tremendously within the last week or so. I've learned low carb wet foods are...
I don't have much to chime in as I'm new here but hoping for the best. And I'm learning so much from all of you! :)
I do the scruff but try to switch up the sides. I tried other spots but he doesn't tolerate it as well.
Thanks! I meant to do that last night but got so nervous I forgot. I did it this morning though, and no blood was drawn from me :p
