I know that Sue, and Carl both have said they are not experts at dosing, and that ultimately we as the "owners" take responsibility for what we give,...
I know, lol....why I really had to laugh at the couple of comments. It was an email she sent....and I'm thankful for that or I would have started...
She is definitely using the "NO" dry food guideline. I think I had mentioned something when I took Boy there back in April,.,.and didn't think I...
Boy is definitely trying hard to get to his (and mine) OTJ goal. He is on his third attempt now at (+) 28. Maybe he'll get much further this time....
That is too funny!! Glad you posted it!
Re: Boy 5/20 +16 114! Thanks Carl....I am and did last night! Nice that my bd fell on a weekend too!
Re: Boy 5/20 +16 114! He definitely is...and seems like anytime I have to miss giving him a dose, he does really well. I will definitely keep...
The last five days have been long, chaotic and exhausting with stuff going on with my mom (hospital bx and diagnosis), birthday events, Boy, and...
Definitely not a shootable at 153 for new diabetic cats!! I even still get squirmy when I get a low BG .....and Sue has guided me with many a low...
BD syringes [10 syringes/bag] have on the front of the bag. To be sure I got the right syringe, the Pharmacist took out a bag to show me exactly...
Thanks. Little by little, we seem to be getting closer to OTJ. Now if Boy would only learn, finally, that isn't smart to walk over a burning...
I'm going to "try" and see what giving a 0.1u (skinny) dose for Boy this morning and see how that goes. A previous dose of 0.15u with a BG of 141...
Hope things get smoother with testing Pinky's BG....took me awhile. Here is a link I posted recently for glucose meter ratings (Consumer Reports)...
I do like these numbers better! BG @ (+) 4.5 was 71. I'm still going to see if I can get another BG at (+) 5.5 or (+) 6 just to make sure he...
Re: Boy 5/16 AMPS [+22] 192; +6 85.......Thoughts? Great....seemed to be right. "Before" can be anytime for me sometimes, lol. I can definitely do...
Re: Boy 5/16 AMPS [+22] 192; +6 85.......Thoughts? Hey! His PMPS is 177. Thanks for explaining where the 192 was coming from....now I get it, lol....
Re: Boy 5/16 AMPS [+22] 192; +6 85.......Thoughts? Hi Carl, I did shoot 0.15u when he was 180....he had already been without insulin 23+ hours and...
Re: Boy 5/16 AMPS [+22] 192; +6 85.......Thoughts? Hi Sue, I've been using 160 as my no shoot number.....haven't had to weigh it out as much when...
I was a little afraid to shoot at only 146 last night, but with a 192 @ +22 [0.2u], probably a very small dose would have been the better choice....
Although I had not followed Callie's diabetic history and going OTJ, I am so sorry to hear that a tumor was found and now there is lung involvement....
