Hi Everyone, Non-urgent post here. I have a sugar baby who has been on Prozinc since 2018. I think she needs a longer lasting insulin because her...
Hi, I have just been reading about Bexagliflozin in veterinary use. Has anyone tried this for their sugar babies?
Hi All, My husband and I are planning to go away for a week in May. We moved to Charlotte, NC recently and don't know anyone here yet. My...
Hi All, I'm planning to switch my sweet kitty Cam to Lantus from PZI sometime in the future. She was dx 2018, and has been on PZI since (currently 2...
Hi Everyone, had another check up today for Cam. She's doing pretty good. HCT is coming up nicely. Will need to continue potassium supplementation,...
Yes, I think that's right. Didn't notice I was doing it. I do leave food out so she can nibble if she wants (will stop this when everything is back...
Hi All, good vet visit today. Potassium is 4.5, so we are reducing the supplementation frequency from 3x a day to 2x a day. The vet gave me B12...

Update: Ketones back down, to 0.3 @ 5:30pm. Woo hoo!! Gave 1.25 mg metoclopramide (anti-nausea) earlier today (@ 11:30am), and she's been eating...
Ketones up slightly from 0.6 (high end of normal) to 0.7. She's sleeping now, so I will test her again in a few hours. Prozinc should start kicking...
Yes, it was last night at 11pm when I got the 'Hi' blood reading. She seems okay this AM. BG 289. She has an appetite. I'm going to test the ketones...
