She's had no issues related to the tumors. She doesn't even seem to know they're there. Never scratches or bites at them. The one that was removed...
The forum said things didn't have to be about diabetes to be here. This is about another of my cats, Miska. Miska recently had surgery for a mast...
Only once has he acted like he was going to throw up and that was the first night home from the vet last week. I have ondansetron of my own... what...
A few questions from a newly diabetic cat parent. Smudge is on .5u Lantus twice daily. He is emaciated/cachexic and on Hill's d/d, but has been...
I just heard back from the vet and they're calling in a script for Smudge for cyproheptadine. He's still not eating on his own and I hope this will...
Thank you!
Edited to add the stuff in red above. Just did his morning test, feeding, and insulin. Test was 148. Force fed 10cc of watered down d/d. Tried to...
Just realized, looking at the numbers, I don't understand the formula I'd read. The rabbit adds up to 94.5% carbs. Huh? Really confused. His d/d is...
I'd never heard of neuropathy. I'll have to watch his gait more carefully. (Edit* He's walking on his paws normally, but his balance is shot and...
I finally got enough blood to do a test for Smudge. He tested at 136 about 5 hours after insulin. Is there a chart in here anywhere that says what's...
It says it needs .6 ul. Not tiny, but not a lot. I literally got nothing from his ear. Going to try the warmed rice next time.
Pharmacy's open now, so I'll ask them about the solution. Read it's not mandatory for it to work, just to verify the strips are good.
Trying to figure out how this works. I'm wanting to get a FreeStyle Precision Neo meter since it does glucose and ketones. But I don't understand...
Thanks. I love my vet, but in this, we're going to differ. The stay and curve testing is $118. I can handle it for one or two more trips, but that's...
Thank you! That's one I hadn't heard of. Mirtazapine is what I've used before. One cat had us both a nervous wreck before it was out of her system,...
Smudge got his second dose of insulin this evening when he came home from curve testing. I had to force feed him because he wouldn't eat. After about...
We're home. He's very tired. I was told not to free feed. He's currently on prescription d/d but will have to switch a bit later to w/d. I'm to feed...
I'm hoping the fact that Smudge is pretty comfortable at the vet will be helpful. He doesn't like the car ride, but doesn't freak out and squall like...
Smudge goes in this morning between 7 and 7:30 am for the vet to do his glucose curve. What I've read online says they'll take a sample and then feed...
I took in my sister's cat two years ago due to his issues with vomiting. He was on i/d, but was changed to d/d and has done well since then. He's had...
