Question - she got a B-12 shot and it hurt her - is this common? Use her insulin syringes not the barbaric ones from the vet. Was fine last time. My husband (the shot man) feels awful.
 
no mc tonight :mad:. Don’t mean to be annoying l should be confident in my own decisions, BUT, is it too early to call it a night? So exhausted. Need to wait for a +3, right? :rolleyes::rolleyes:
 
Just saw this. Good night!

ETA: Dolly tends to dip at +3, even if her +2 is the same as PS. So unless her +2 is significantly higher than her PS, it would make sense to get another test before calling it a night!

I agree. Can’t justify my decision, I was up and couldn’t poke her. I did do a +3 just not +4. Maybe irresponsible, maybe not safe. You know how much I adore her and 99% of the time I do whatever I need to, to keep her safe. Last night was my 1%.
DQ :p

Minnie used to meow and run off so I think it did hurt her too. I think because it’s such a large dose. But I was using the larger syringes. Now however, I inject it the same way I do her insulin shots. Still using the larger syringes but I make an extra large tent and I shoot parallel to her body and as far away from the neck as possible. She doesn’t mind anymore.

Thank you Aleluia. I thought by using the insulin syringes there wouldn’t be any pain issues. I guess it’s the medicine that can sting. I do the testing, my husband the injections. He felt so bad. Dolly doesn’t react to her insulin shots , she just get in position after being tested, just another routine for her. :cat::cat: I will show him your message. You and Minnie take care. :)
