    Hi guys,

    I don't have alot of faith in my vet so I defer to all of you for opinions on how much Lantus to start on Monday morning. We are on Humulin N now.

    Could you please take a look at our SS and let me know. I'm pretty worried about changing but our chart shows we need to use something not so harsh that would be longer lasting.

    Thank you so much for the help.

    So glad to hear you are changing insulins; I think you will be much happier with a longer lasting insulin that is gentler, and so will your kitty.

    If I were you, I would repost my question over on the Lantus support group: viewforum.php?f=9 They all use your insulin and have experience with it. Also, take the time to read the stickies at the top of their page. They have great info on how lantus works and what to watch out for.

    BTW Great looking spreadsheet.

    Thank you! I will be a good student and I have been studying those links! :) I love my kitty boy Purrcie and want to get a handle on this so he feels like a happy boy again.

    Check back often in both forums for feedback thru the day.
    Glad you found this board, it has been a lifesaver to many of our kitties!
