Our beloved Gradycat has left us this Christmas, bereft and heartbroken. After successfully getting him OTJ a couple of months ago, he suddenly began...
Finally got the full lab results from the vet and managed to incorporate it into Grady's spreadsheet along with the food that makes up his diet now....
So, since Grady went OTJ last week we took him to the vet to get a full blood panel and urinalysis done. The good news was that his glucose levels...
Two weeks and a day without Insulin! It's going to feel weird now, not having to test Grady's blood twice a day. But I'm sure it's a relief for him,...
Since it looks like Grady is about to come through the other side of the OTJ trial period without any issues, what are the next steps? Do I continue...
So, this is the 7th consecutive day that Grady has been between 40 & 130 on his lowered dose of .1u. If I understand correctly, now I'm supposed to...
So, it's actually been over a week since we dropped Grady's insulin dosage down to .25u and he's been holding pretty steady. Any "spikes" have only...
After yet another week of very steady numbers, I'm thinking it's time for another dose reduction. This time down to .25u. We haven't had a...
So, as we approach the second week in a row of BG numbers between 40 and 130, should we be considering another dosage decrease (down to .5 u), or...
I have not been getting the results I was hoping for when I reduced Grady's dosage from 1u to .75u. It's been a week and the numbers have not been...
At normal AMPS time (8:30 am) Grady was at 99. Retesting 15 minutes later he was a couple of points lower. So, as I have to work, I decided to skip...
After doing a complete 12 hour curve yesterday, I'm noticing Grady's numbers staying down. They were pretty constant throughout the day and now...
I've been shooting low for a few cycles now, but I was just wondering what the cut off point might be. Anywhere below 100? I've given a shot at 151...
This is the lowest Grady's ever been Pre-Shot and, as I have to go to work, I can't be around to monitor him. The best I can do is get back for lunch...
First time in the green zone. Shot low for the third time.
So, I assume I give his shot as usual. What happens after that?
Before Grady was diagnosed with diabetes he had acquired some fairly substantial mats. He's a short haired cat but they are very dense. We've tried...
Numbers going down now, which is a relief. Can't stay up to retest through the night. Got work in the morning :sad: Will see what the morning AMPS...
Quite a jump in numbers from the past couple of days. Will retest in a couple of hours to make sure his levels are going down.
