Cat with BG of 191 at vet.

[Suzanne & Darcy]

Do y'all think getting a 191 on a cat, at the vet, is a big deal? I tend to think not, but that's more than my other cats usually get at the vet (even the high stress ones.) Oh well, I guess I can always test her ear. Hope I'm not too rusty.

I’ve had more than one cat read higher than that at the vet and then read perfectly normal at home. I’d test at home in the next few days to be certain but not be overly concerned just yet.

Was the 191with the vets equipment? I find their equipment reads higher. Also ECID at the vet.
I agree with JL, I would test at home for a few days

It was part of the bloodwork that I had done on her today.

I just looked back at Spooks BG bloodwork & he was @205. He trys to get in Panzer's test box with him all the time. I've tried testing him & as far as I've gotten before he takes off is an ear poke but no blood. I would love to be able to test him occasionally, might have to push him more & do it. Hope your kitty is okay.

That's a little higher than I'd expect from the bloodwork. An AT, I wouldn't be surprised.

Looking at Mr Kitty's bloodwork at the vet, highest he's been while in remission is 139...and you know how he is at the vet

Agree, just test at home for a few days.

Neko's civvie buddy tested 220's at the vet and 53 at home the next day. It wasn't his usual vet and a male one to boot.

The 191 glucose number was what came back on the bloodwork run on their in house IDEXX equipment. Not an ear prick. But, I did get a BG test on her last night before bed with my ReliOn Premier and she was at 72, so I feel pretty good about that. Thanks, everyone!

A bit late Suzanne and i don't know if this helps but when Duke went to the vets a couple of weeks ago i checked him just before he set off at AM+10.5 and he was 173, 1 1/2 hours later at PMPS he was 250.
He's always higher after a vets visit but comes back down to normal during the next cycle even when he went over 300 in March.

I wonder if my glucose goes higher at the doc's? I'm not overly fond of doctors

Lol, dentist for me.
