Hello, After I did the curve for the vet on July 2 and sent her the link to Mr. Big Eyes' SS, she said I'd been doing an awful lot of testing and...
Mr. Big Eyes is so old and seems in such sad shape with poor walking, hair loss, kidney disease, and probably having had diabetes a while before...
Thanks! I guess I did know that from reading I've done here.:) It's important to know before giving insulin.
Hello, When I saw the new vet 3 weeks ago she asked me to do a curve in 3 weeks, so I need to do it sometime over the 4 day weekend I have coming...
That is terrible hot! I hope it cools down for you. It's been running high 90s here in Kansas with high humidity, but supposed to be 70s and low...
Yes, the shipping is a big deal. I'd been looking at Valley Vet because they are selling for $102. I looked to see where they are located and they...
Thanks! Do you remember how much they charge for the shipping?
Hello, Does anyone purchase Prozinc online? My new vet wants me to continue using it, but she doesn't carry it. She has an online pharmacy on her...
Well, it had gone back up to 290 in those last 2 hours, so I went ahead with 2.5U--normal dose and more normal number. I'll check again before I go...
Thanks! I may decide to give him a smaller dose if he's still lower 200's and see what that does for him. The green actually makes me nervous...
This morning at AMPS I got BG 186, but I'd read recently if you got too much blood on the test strip, you could get an incorrect reading rather than...
Good luck to you in finding a vet you like and a doctor! It's too bad you've lost your doctor due to insurance. It controls so much of what we do...
Yes, I certainly wouldn't go up a whole unit!
Thanks for this list! I will save it to share with my vet when I do the curve. I agree that he needs more than 2.5U, but the vet seems to have a...
Thanks! I'm usually at work M-F and away from the house on Saturday around the +5 and 6. Fortunately I usually take off some afternoons in May and...
When I picked up Mr. Big Eyes after they got him started on insulin at the vet, I knew I didn’t want to go back to that vet again. One of her staff...
Thanks! Just what I need.
The day I picked up Mr. Big eyes after they started him on Prozinc, I knew I didn't want to go back to the vet I'd used the past few years. I...
BG continued to remain high at 2.25U, so I gave 2.5U this morning. I had hoped to see a good number at AMPS +6, but I didn't and the number at AMPS...
Thanks! I will start taking it away 2 hours before tests. I don't know whether he'd eaten more than just what I observed right before the test...
