    Hi everyone,
    Tessie Lou was diagnosed on 11/26/10 and put on ProZinc by a vet who was inflexible and not up-to-date about feline diabetes.
    Since then, we:
    found FDMB;
    changed her diet;
    hooked up with an experienced local FDMB member;
    started home testing;
    changed to a knowledgeable vet who believes in home testing;
    had her tested and treated for a UTI with a course of antibiotics, and now...
    started Tessie on Lantus, 1unit bid, as of this morning.

    What a ride!

    My question is, does anyone out there have any advice or suggestions about making the switch from ProZinc to Lantus?

    For more background on Tessie's journey, here are links to earlier posts on this forum and the PZI forum (oldest post listed first).

    I apologize for the length of this post, but I thought it would be helpful to have all Tessie's background in one place for anyone who wants to take the time to read it. I'm also going to post this on the Lantus Forum.
    Thanks very much!
    Sandy
