Hello Previous post https://felinediabetes.com/FDMB/threads/noah-20-02-dosage-suggestion.274416/#post-3047414 I keep giving him 2 unit even if the number is low ? @Wendy&Neko
Yes. Lantus is very good at giving flat cycles when you shoot lower numbers. I presume you can get a test or two during the day?
Yes I shoot 2 unit and I can make test during the day. i won’t be home all day but a couple of test I can do for sure to make sure he is not dropping too low
He is having a great cycle today ! I’m leaving home now and left some food for him. Will update the pmsn thanks
Looks like you stuck with 2 units - good call. Unfortunately those lovely numbers are causing him to bounce, but you are probably getting a good night's sleep as a result. To answer the dosing question, on TR, you reduce if they go under 50 on a human meter (for a newly diagnosed cat, which Noah is). You increase if nadirs are between 100 and 200 in six to 10 cycles. I used the rule of thumb to hold the dose to the longer side for low blues, shorter times for high blues. I think you could hold this dose at least another day because of the 120's you are seeing.
this morning he is 5.6… and I don’t have chance to stay with him this morning Shall I shoot him 2 unit or a reduce ?
So I gave him 2 unit . I can do a +2 and I can put more food in the auto feeder for today . Does this sound good ?
Yes. if he is much lower at +2, you can always feed a little carbs and leave higher carb food in the autofeeder.
