Thank you. For curves, how many hours should I wait before each test? Also, I forgot to ask this in my post, at what number would I not give insulin?...
I posted on the main forum here: http://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/threads/changing-injection-schedule.182832/#post-2027847 Hi! The vet recently...
Thank you! I will update my spreadsheet and post over there!
I have someone to give his shot on Monday. I wouldn't be able to do a preshot blood test though. The latest I can leave the house would be 8:30 AM,...
Thank you both! That schedule works out great. The only day I wouldn't be able to do a preshot would be Monday and Wednesday morning.
Hi everyone, I'm starting school soon, and with T.C.'s current injection times (noon and midnight) I wouldn't be able to do a preshot test for them....
Hi everyone, just a quick update. T.C. had a vet visit Tuesday where they checked for ketones - he was negative. We are switching to Lantus tomorrow...
Hi guys, Thanks for all the advice. I'm going to try the slightly higher carb food and see how that works. I'm also seeing the vet next week to talk...
Thank you for this info! I will definitely bring this to their attention. My mother was reading a lot online about getting cats into remission, so...
Like more specific? Sure! Edit: added "Classic." Is that specific enough? It's the poultry and beef ones. Is FF okay, or do I write it out?
I would like to use a new vet we visited, but my parents didn't like them because they wanted to do a urinalysis for $250. I feel this vet is more...
Hi guys, T.C.'s numbers have been all over the place. I'm in a tough place because my parents are the ones providing money for his treatment, but...
What other slow-acting insulins are there? You mentioned levemir. Is that the best one? I want to go into the vet with a lot of information. Would...
Thank you for the information on drops. And I did get the half-unit syringes, so I'm doing half of 0.5.
Hi. Thanks for all the help. I was gone a couple nights and did not feel comfortable with T.C. being unmonitored when he's been dropping so low. On...
Yeah, I was a bit panicked when I saw 56 on the alphatrak. He didn't show any symptoms of hypo either. His ears were warm though. Not sure if that's...
It was at 6 hours. Sorry I can't update my spreadsheet! My meter is at home with all the numbers on them. Let me update my signature because I am...
It went 56. I did the Karo syrup and some high carb food. And that was with a high preshot and only 0.5 units. I will lower it and ask the vet as...
Hi, I haven't updated my spreadsheet yet. He's doing okay. We had another really low reading after just 0.5 units of insulin. We are contacting the...
Indeed! I had changed to asterisks and added it in the notes section, but didn't update my signature. :oops: It seems so based on the high preshot...
