Meatball 2/23 AMPS 472 PMPS 485

Nothing particularly exciting about today. I gave 3u this am, 3.5 this pm. Still waiting on the results of the urine culture. I think it will be ready Thursday. Picked up some glucose strips today, will share the results if I can test him tonight!

Thanks for all the info about the fluids. There is a costco near where I Iive, do you have to be a member to shop there?

 

Yes. Just had a friend here from the DC area - he says there's one in Gaithersburg??? Yea, you have to be a member to shop at Costsco but I'm learning if you have to be one to use the pharmacy too?? If you get the executive membership you get 2% back on all your purchases there but I'm pretty sure there is some guarantee that they will offer you that if you do not get back in that 2% the amount you spend on the executive membership they will refund the difference making the membership free. Plus the Costco/AMEX cash back card rocks - 1% on everything, 2% on travel, 3% on meals and 5% on gas. I get very large rebate checks.

As for local sources of LRS you can follow the other tips I had or look here for known local sources:

The IV admin sets to get from shopmedvet would be either
http://www.shopmedvet.com/product/381/iv-administration
or
http://www.shopmedvet.com/product/11876 ... nistration
or
http://www.shopmedvet.com/product/11868 ... nistration
but I'm not sure about the drops /ml with the Braun or the JorVet one. I'll have to call.

And the needles to get are the 21g x1" Terumo 100/box
http://www.shopmedvet.com/product/7409/ ... nd-needles

And they have cheap Sharps containers [I like the 2 gallon ones].

 

Molly,

I just learned that one does NOT need to be a member of Costco to use a Costco pharmacy! As long as the purchase is of a medication [nothing over the counter] you can use their pharmacies.

 

nice! thanks for the info! :mrgreen:
