Hi everyone, Hershel was just put back on insulin after going OTJ for the second time in August 2020 after a bout of pancreatitis. His vet ran some...
Hello again to all the amazing people on this board who are always so quick to help out with my on again off again diabetic boy Hershel. I was last...
I'm definitely up for trying that, I suspect my 0.25 unit doses have sometimes been closer to 0.1 anyway - it is SO hard to tell on these syringes.

Thanks for checking in, Mogs. He ate a tiny bit this morning and has had a few treats. I'm giving him Mirtazipine and Cerenia in 30 minutes and 1...
The mirtazipine is the ear gel. Here are the labs: The insulin seems to be having no effect. I think 0.5 is too small a dose (he was started at 1u...
The vet gave me a 10 day supply of Mirtazipine and a 4 day supply of Cerenia, I have to wait 2 more hours to administer them today. He ate about a...
