I know that 189 is less than 200, but I felt confident that a .5u dose would be okay with a BG near 200. I'll keep working on him--trying to make...
He'll likely be heading on our spring break with us! If I boarded him at the vet, he'd try to kill me in my sleep!
We have traveled with him before, but it really stresses him out. He hates everything about getting in a car and going anywhere.
No known ketones history. I usually test in the morning around 6 and leave before 7. I'm home most days by 6, and that's when I test him again. I...
We're both teachers and can't be home during the day, so I could only get mid-cycle tests on weekends. I will make a better effort to collect some...
Our cat, John Denver, was diagnosed in 2017. We were able to get him to a state of remission after just a few months of testing and treatment....
We have not had any tests done, but any rear leg weakness he had seems to have abated. It wasn't pronounced--in fact, my wife noticed it and I did...
Yes, our cat is back on ProZinc. It worked really effectively during his first bout with his blood sugar. We have no experience with Lantus.
This same thing happened with our kitty this week. 2 years off of insulin. He was not at the vet, but other than that--same story. You are not alone!
Our kitty, John Denver, was diagnosed with diabetes in September of 2017. Thanks to all of the help and support of the kind folks here, we were able...
Congratulations! Great news! It is amazing what a change in diet can do.
1. 9/11/2017 2. ProZinc. Started at 2u twice per day; decreased to 1u, then to .5u, finally to .25u. 3. We switched to Fancy Feast Classic Pate...
Lots more mid-cycle tests the past few weeks, and JD seems to be doing really well. He hasn't needed insulin in almost 5 days, and the last shot I...
Thanks!
I can try giving a .25u dose. I do use the U-40 syringes, so it'd be no better than an estimate, but I think I could manage! Thank you for the...
Hi, @Yong , @Djamila , @Rachel : While I haven't been able to get a full curve of tests, I was able to get two days in a row of a +2 test after his...
Thanks! We will try to give more mid-cycle tests.
Thanks, @Yong and @Djamila !! I should be home at least one day this weekend and I will test him every couple of hours. I appreciate your advice.
If anyone has a few minutes, could you please take a look at John Denver's latest numbers? Based on the info on this board, we don't inject him...
Thanks! I am sure that is what it is as far as his food goes. If I don't break up the pate as much when it glops out of the can, it doesn't seem to...
