Good morning, Kit,
I’m happy to hear Mikan is feeling better. I know it’s slow going for her to feel back to herself completely.
Hoping her BG will return to lower numbers soon. I’m sure it’s a slow process as she recovers.
Waiting is so hard.
Keep loving on her as I know you will. That’s the best medicine for her is Mom’s love
Wishing you a nice day and lots of love to your sweet baby

Mikan's definitely feeling better. She's more social and responsive.
But her numbers are still not coming down
Hopefully, better BGs will follow her recovery.
It's nice to see bright eyed Mikan though!
Wishing you and Ivy a wonderful day

I'm hopeful that she is getting better and her BGs will start coming down.

That's exactly what I'm thinking.
It's been a rough week - I didn't know how extensive the dental procedures were and it must have taken a lot out of her - poor baby...
But she's more out and about this morning. I'm hopeful that she's feeling better and better!

Well those are good signs, Kit. Let's hope that the lower BG will follow. I bet there's inflammation which needs to subside and maybe any infection from the bad teeth in her body (now gone) and she will then recalibrate.Hi Staci,

Paws crossed for better BG soon.
Hope you have a nice day. Gentle kisses for Mikan
Have you thought of increasing Mikan's dose? It's been 25 days since she last saw green. I expect some glucose toxicity has set in. The results from dental may lower her numbers soon. With Neko it took about 10 days. But I increased when her numbers went up due to the inflammation from surgery and took it back down when her numbers told me she was healing and she earned a reduction.

Thanks Wendy for the post.
I did increase her dose to 6.5U this morning.
I too was wondering about the temporary increase while Mikan's healing. Mikan's responsiveness to insulin has been minimum.
I saw some progress in Mikan's behaviors last night (more active, up and about, purring) so I am hoping to see better numbers soon.
Thanks again for sharing your experience and advice. Much appreciated!
