Hi @Deb & Wink, @Ewa Michalczuk! Sorry for seeing the alert this late. I'm indeed using the Caninsulin VetPen. It was actually what our vet...
We consulted with the vet today and asked for the syringes to give a lower dose. We were told that it looked like Cedric was going into remission and...
Many thanks for thinking along with us. We are calling the vet tomorrow and ask for the possibilities for lowering the dose.
Yeah, I can probably order them online. I'll discuss with my girlfriend and consult with the vet first. It's difficult to escape this catch-22...
No I didn't test again. I thought green = good. We did observer his behavior and there were no signs of a too low BG. Will do a second test next...
Getting the confirmation that I'm making the right decision in caring for my cat means a lot to me! This is all pretty overwhelming and I already...
BG pre-shot test for Jan 6 AM is 6.5 mmol/l (117 mg/dl). This is 23 hours after the last dose! Had to go to work, so gave him his meal, but skipped...
Hi @MrWorfMen's Mom, sorry it took a while before I found the time to reply. Thank you for taking the time to write such an informative post. We...
BG test at +11 is 6.9 mmol/l (124 mg/dl) Probably too low to shoot 0,5 U, so skipping. Gave Cedric his evening meal, a cat must eat at some time....
So guess what. It's 7.30 PM, Cedric's usual evening meal time. It's been more than 10 hours since his last shot and since Caninsulin is an insuline...
The +4 is 4.4 mmol/l (79 mg/dl) That's alright @Bron and Sheba (GA), I appreciate your support! It would be nice if this would lead to some sort of...
Okay, got it! That makes sense. I've updated the spreadsheet. Since we skipped insuline on January 3th, that adds 24 + 12 hours = 36 hours between...
Sorry, but I don't think I understand where the '+13' comes from. Timeline Jan 5: 08:15 CET: Morning preshot test shows BG 8 mmol/l. No shot. Gave...
Hi @Bron and Sheba (GA), thanks for replying! Do you mean +2 relative to the AM preshot? Or relative to the moment of administering insuline?
We are going to take another test (1 hour later). If there is an increase, we will give 0,5u insuline. Update: BG was increased to 178 mg/dl (9.9...
After a diet change, we did conclude Cedric still needs 0,5u insuline a day. With the intention of administering 0,5u we just took an AM preshot...
Okay. After a discussion with my girlfriend we decided to give Cedric a small bit of food and 0,5u insuline. That was before I saw your post. I did...
I am not sure if I can help much, as I am also very new to the subject. For Cedric, I made the transition from dry food to wet food yesterday. I was...
@Sienne and Gabby (GA) Just got a preshot reading: 10.0 mmol/l Do I proceed to give 0,5 U insuline or not?
Thanks for clarifying the TR protocol. Looks like there is more research for me to do. I had not considered switching insuline types yet. Can you...
