    Hi,

    Lolly's 13, has been in remission for 16 mos after Lantus tight regulation. She's having a lot of work done including at least three extractions on Tuesday. I've been reading that major dental work can knock a cat out of remission. Is this true, how often should I be checking her BG when she comes home, should I have insulin on hand? Anything else I should know?

    She has to have the dental, her teeth got very bad since putting her on the sll wet high protein diet.

    Thanks everyone.

    Sometimes a dental can help a kitty go into remission.... for some reason tarter often knocks a cat out of remission.
    Steroids have been known to cause FD to come back....
    I am not a expert so I will BUMP this....

    Actually, a good dental can help them stay in remission!!

    One of the biggest reasons cats come out of remission is because of dental issues, so it's good you're getting it done now!

    Blu is going in for major dental extractions tomorrow too, and is in remission. So scary! He's about 14-15 yrs old. Hate the fears! Hugs and fast healing to Lolly!
