Toby discontinued Lantus today and started on Toujeo today with hopes that his readings will go down without bouncing.
Good news is that he does not need to eat prior to dosing. He usually vacillates between eating very well to hardly anything. Sometimes only will eat only about 6 to 10 bites of dry and will always refuse wet...even
baby food. I assist feeding (swipe wet food on side of his mouth) at those times usually around 2 1/2 meals back to back.
It's quick and he is very forgiving but he hates this. The vet today said that as long as he eats SOMETHING even a little in 24 hours he will be fine. I think this contradicts the opinion of you. I will follow your lead. Should I continue assisting as I have been twice a day if needed?
Try some fancy feast gravy pate which he might eat?
