Morning,

We're counting down the days until Jonesy's dental (next tuesday). I'm praying that it will make a big difference re how he's feeling in general, and his numbers.

But until then, I'm increasing his dose by .25 this morning, plus I'll give him more sub-q fluids. I find right now, every other day fluids are helping him.

Have a great day everyone :D

With my boy it turned out his teeth and gums were his Achilles heel.

He slid down a teeny bit, I'm happy with it. The lowest number I've seen in three days! I hope they continue to slide down slooooooowly ;)
 
Well, he's not working "the juice" too hard ;) but the antibiotics appear to be kicking in! His ears have been warm for some time, and I know that can indicate stress, or illness. As I know he's got dental issues, I'm THRILLED that they may be reducing the infection in his mouth.

Hoping for cool ears and safe low numbers when I wake up ;)
 
Hey Darcy,
Before Freckles' dental I posted for advice to this forum and read the dental sticky. I was offered some "do's and don'ts" and some "maybe's". It allowed me to have the supplies on hand in case Freckles had diarrhea or heaven forbid - didn't want to eat. Plus I posted what my vet wanted to do regarding insulin amounts, eating schedule, antibiotics, probiotics etc. Plus I received tips on making her stay at the vets less stressful. I found I was much more prepared and confident in how the day would go.

I also made a paper collar for Freckles and wrote DIABETIC on it... I didn't want any "Oops, we forgot to check her" scenarios. :rolleyes:

WOW!!! Thank you SO much Judy!!

Honestly, I'm so overwhelmed with all that's going on with the house sale (bartering over possession dates now :( ) that I'd not thought about REALLY planning out for his dental.

Thank you so much!
 
Good luck with the new dose Darcy. Also, I hope Jonesy's dental does for him what it did for Sandy's Black Kitty, wouldn't that be amazing??!!
