Hi. I'm just feeling a little downhearted at the moment, as I don't know quite how to help Blossom. I've filled in the spreadsheet this morning with the figures I have been keeping, but it all looks so bleak. Blossom is looking fairly good, and can still jump in and out of the house through my bedroom window, but I feel that I am not getting on top of the insulin dosage, and he will only deteriorate if I can't get on top of this. My vet is keen to keep adding units, but after reading all the advice on here I think that is wrong. Do I start again at a lower dose? Could someone take a look at the spreadsheet if they have time, and let me know what they think. I will start doing more testing throughout the day, and give more comments so that it will be a better picture going forward.
He's on 2.5 units of caninsulin twice a day (discussed changing insulin with the vet who isn't keen at the moment, but as I don't know what I am talking about don't feel I can fight my corner on this). He has 1 sachet of whiskas pouch wet food in jelly, and two tins of Applaws pate split between two meals.
Many thanks
Teresa
