I just read about ketosis. I'm so sick of doctors and I should know better than trusting them above myself. My poor cat has been suffering for so...
She doesn't like the bag near her head, or the warm cloth out of the bag. I will have to warm her by petting her. She's very independent and not a...
The vet prescribes 1 1/2 units of lantus every 12 hours, and NO blood testing. I gave up on that 2 weeks ago. I'm not giving her anything without...
I don't understand. Do I stop giving her 1 unit insulin/lantus for a week or until she's higher than yellow, or shoot 2x a day at .5 if she's in the...
Thank You for the help with testing. I will use that warming and poking technique. I have to psych myself up to poke her. I use the pen that snaps...
The ultra thin ones work the best. She was 248 and I gave her 1 unit. Now I have to figure out how to put that on the SS.
Yes, I see you were on a roller coaster ride. That's why I want to learn from YOU Veronica. I want girl to do what Babu did. How can I help her? At...

No, the printer doesn't work, and I have no one to help me. I'll try again later. I'm really overwhelmed with all of this right now. THANK YOU. I'm...

wow. This is overwhelming.
No, yesterday.
Vet said to give 1 1/2 units lantus 2x a day, but I haven't been giving her any for 2 weeks because she was eating raw food and happy. Now she's back...
I got a printer from the thrift store, so now I'm going to try to figure out the spread sheet.
Her 6 hour after glargine BG is 250! I'll have to take it again tonight around 8 to see if I need to give her another unit.
Is it important for them to eat 6 hours after giving lantus?
Thanks Nat. I like that 12 hour BG/lantus cycle. I'm going to check her now because it's been 6 hours since she got the shot. I don't think it's...
Another thing she does that may be related is "mowing" her tummy and back legs. Is this because of neuropathy or an irritable stomach? Would B vit...
Nan, how often should I be testing her blood?
does it OH MY, he needs a lot of blood for that meter. I just need a TINY speck of blood for this one.
