Day 6 on Basaglar

Well, if I had to say something about how Basaglar gets along with China at this point, I'd say it doesn't always last a full 12 hours, and it seems to onset a little later

And while her numbers are mostly good, her 30 day average is going up a little so I'm going to be watching that closely too

I have to admit, although the Basaglar seems to be safe, I think I like Lantus better....at least the way China responds to it.

In other news, it was one heck of a day with DM! Her new cleaning lady came this morning so I wasn't worried about her, but about 1 I started calling just to see how her day was going and got voice mail....called probably 10 times in the next couple hours and always went to VM (now it's not unusual for her to not hear it the first time or two, or be in the shower or somewhere when it rings and forget to call back, so I don't panic right away)

After 2 hours of VM, I called a couple of the ladies that live in the building and asked them to go check on her. One wasn't home and the other "couldn't leave her dog" (long story), so I ended up going over there.

That phone was GONE!! I can usually call it, find where it is and go right to it, but it wasn't anywhere in the apartment. I knew the battery was OK because it was ringing 4 times before going to VM. I thought "well maybe she threw it away", so I went out to the big trash in the parking lot and called it again (in case she accidentally tossed it and the cleaning lady took it out with the trash)....Nothing from the trash can either! DM finally remembered she'd been out in the courtyard for a walk, so I went out there and called it....nothing again.

Finally gave up and figured I'd just have to go buy a new phone since she can't be without one in case she needs to call for help, and went to AT&T. As I was waiting my turn, her phone called me!! It was one of the other ladies in the building who didn't know who the phone belonged to and was just calling the most called number. Luckily, she knows me and DM well and took the phone down to her. It was out in the courtyard but all the way on the opposite side from where I'd been and I hadn't heard it ring.

Whew! Good thing there was a line at the AT&T store!...and Thank God for the lady that found it!!

Hope you're all having a good Caturday!!
 
Wow on the phone situation with your mom. I'm glad she was okay and you got the phone back.

I hope China will settle into the Basaglar and keep surfing for you.

Thanks Carla!! It was very frustrating, especially considering the cleaning lady said she had it sitting next to her when she left a little after noon.....how she could lose it that "lost" in about an hour and then not remember she went that far out in the courtyard drives me crazy

I hope China will settle into the Basaglar and keep surfing for you.

Me too.....Not sure if I'll continue with Basaglar.....at some point, I think I'll probably switch her back to Lantus if she doesn't settle down
 
Hi Chris, I'm glad the phone drama had a happy ending!

The Basaglar sounds like it is just OK for China, but she seemed to work the Lantus much better. How long are you going to keep with it?

Yo Deputy China, I'm trying to get back in the surf tonight. Hold the fort until I get there. In the meantime I'm checking out the shoreline.

Wow on the phone drama. Glad you found it before you had to throw down some big bucks for a new phone.

China is ever the patient wonderful kitty. I think it's great you're letting her try out this new med really for the purpose of helping others. Will be looking forward to hearing her progress.

I'm off to rite aid to see if I can get the lantus solostar pen for $10 with the RX savings card that Taffy'smama said worked for her. Paws crossed.
