Hello, I wanted to do an update here because so many of you have helped me and Ballonee on our journey through this diagnosis. I lost her tonight....
So here's my rant... So for a long time Ballonee has been on 0.5 units of lantus bid (a couple of years now). She's never been an easy one to...
Hi everyone, It's been about two years since I've posted on this forum. I took a bit of a break while trying to resume some "normalcy" for Ballonee...
So our AM and PM routines consist of a gluc check, food, and insulin (obviously). Ballonee is an extremely anxious kitty and has always been. The...

New thread for today :) In process of updating spreadsheet. Answering @Nan & Amber from yesterday's post :) I think it would be a good habit to...
I believe it's been 6 cycles and my intuition tells me time for a dose increase to 0.50. Am I correct? I'm itching to get her down from these high...
Updated spreadsheet. Still running high.. so odd she used to go lime green on these doses and now she's not even going blue.. regardless I'm more...

This morning Ballonee wouldn't eat for me again similarly to yesterday. Yesterday I didnt give the 0.25U insulin and she got up to 414. Was 220 this...
So I'm stressing about my glucometer strips/costs. The vet charges me 107$ for 50 strips and I use 6-10 a day right now because she is stabilizing....
Was at a good number this morning for her, in my opinion. I mean it was a number I would have felt comfortable shooting at. She was acting happy and...
I just checked Ballonees Gluc at +4 even though she was acting normal just incase and it was 54 :( So gave her corn syrup and fed her some high carb...
Here is my introductory post about Ballonee http://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/threads/newly-diagnosed-5-days-ago.188278/ So a bit of history, she...
I noticed that when I go to check my Ballonee's Glucs that the lancet, even though it's set on the lowest number, sometimes goes right through her...
