9/15 Butters AMPS 76/+10 68/PMPS 72/+1 67/

Yesterday
I thought we had an agreement that Butters was to nadir around +5. It was what she'd been doing for a number of cycles. Overnight it looked like she had her nadir at +5, but then she decided it would be fun to keep me guessing and didn't actually nadir until +8.

Have a lovely day/evening, all.

 

@carfurby This same vet also ditched us as her patient because Butters' bouncing freaked her out; she had no idea what was going on with her numbers going from green to pink and back. It's weird how I still 100% believe her comment about Butters NEVER going into remission, even though she doesn't seem to know much about FD.
I agree with you, though. I just want Butters to be happy and healthy, whether she goes OTJ or not.

 

Oh Butters Determined to make the most of Catcation 2020 And she surfed with LC? This is a win, right? Good job Hope Butters surfs safely today!

 

Great start for Butters. I hope she surfs safely today.

 

Laughable...doesn't seem to know 'much'...how about nothing??? ha! I don't mean to be mean...but it just puts my teeth on edge when I hear over and over again about how little vets know about FD...

I'm so glad you and Butters are here! I know she's working you for all it's worth - but Oh WOW! Look at those numbers! She is getting better by the day...and night too...

Hope you can get a nap today!

Have a good day you two..terrific start too!

 

She did surf with LC I used 10% LC at +10 just in case she was still diving down before AMPS, though.

 

I don't think you're being mean. I spent time searching for a vet who knew something about FD. Her vet clinic had a decently written blog post on FD, and I asked them a bunch of questions that they answered reasonably well before we spent the $$$ on switching vets. Clearly didn't help!
There is no way I could have helped her without the people on the board. So thankful that Google led me here.

 

Wow. Look at all that green for Butters. Very nice. And I'm so impressed that she will let you test her so often. She's a trooper. Jazzy would be a huge jerk

Hope she continues improving. And I hope you get some sleep, my goodness. Lol

Have a great day!

 

Morning Lyla just look at all those beautiful greens.
I hope you can get a cat nap in today. Kisses for Butters

 

Hang in there Lyla! I see you and Butters working hard today

 

So healing....yet so much work. This feels like the longest cycle ever. I am lucky Butters would deal with almost anything for some freeze dried chicken. It doesn't matter how many times I poke her ears, when I flip the top of the test strips open she runs to our testing spot and lies down.
Thusfar:
76 AMPS Fed 2.5 tsp LC (2 - 3%)
72 @+1
54 @+2 Fed 1/2 tsp HC gravy
59 @+2.5 Fed 1 tsp LC (10%)
61 @+3 Fed 1/2 tsp LC (2 - 3%)
58 @+3.75
52 @+4.25 Fed 1/2 tsp HC gravy + 1/2 tsp LC (2 - 3%)
59 @+5
59 @+5.5 Fed 1 tsp LC (10%)
52 @+6.5 Fed 1 tsp MC (15%)

 

70 @+7.25. Congratulations Butters, you just earned yourself a one hour poke break.

 

I switched VETS 3 times before I found one who we LOVE! She supports home testing and Cabergoline and thinks that the FDMB is a wonderful support for Amethyst and I

 

LOL

I can almost hear the edge in your voice! It’s been a lonng week huh?

 

Little bit. I've gone out only once all week, and it was to buy...cat food.
But she's healing! So I don't begrudge her my time too much.
Lol, yep, definite edge. Or a lack of sleep.
