We are still seeing very active cycles these days, which is a good thing πŸ’™πŸ’š

I got most of her lab work information back from this past Tuesday and the good news is her T4, thyroid value, went down from 3.3 to 2.3 (Normal range) in one month πŸ’“
So, the dose of 5 mg methimazole twice a day is doing what it should, finally.
Vet said everything looked good πŸ’•

Hoping this means we can go 3 months until we test her again. A break from monthly testing would be so nice for both of us πŸ™

The lower T4 seems to be affecting her BG in that if the thyroid is more under control, she seems to be needing less insulin and we have been consistently reducing insulin again.

I just gave her another reduction this morning, down to 1.75 units.
I’ve spent most nights this past week sleeping on the sofa because she’s had very active cycles overnight until about +7 or so, which is 1 am 😬

It would be very nice if she would be a little more flat, of course, she does like to dive, then spike, and then dive 🀿 again 😳

Hope everyone has a very boring weekend and all cats eat well 🌊😻πŸ₯°πŸ„‍♀️

Hiding behind the water heater in the basement, naughty girl (she doesn’t normally have access to this room, she followed me in there to get something).

Fantastic news about the thyroid!
I hope the lower dose will keep her out of those limes!! But also keep her out of those higher numbers as well.
Have a nice Saturday, Staci! Scritches to our sometimes sweet and sometimes spicy girl.
Thank you, Mary. I hope she finds a nice flat dose soon too. Mama is very tired πŸ₯±

I hope you are having a wonderful Caturday with your sweet gang πŸˆπŸˆβ€β¬›πŸ˜»πŸ’“πŸ’•
 
Yay that's beautiful news about her T4. It would also be wonderful if she didn't have to go back for testing every month. I'd really want that for you both.
I hope she behaves today while you go out for dinner and hopefully Andrew will be there to keep his eye on her. Ivy be nice to your human brother.
Enjoy your evening and happy caturday

So glad to hear about the good test results, especially the thyroid! ❀️

Hee, I guess her majesty feels the need to survey all of her territory occasionally. She's like, "what? This is all mine!" Cheeky girl.

I very much hope you get a chance to catch up on some sleep, and have a relaxing, boring weekend!

Thanks Karolina, hoping she was nice to her brother tonight. She was a bit spicy with me at dinner time.
Think she didn’t want me to go out.

Haha, she does like to sneak into the one unfinished room in her basement to explore occasionally when I go in there.
And if I accidentally shut her in there she screams bloody murder 😎

She likes the concrete floor and looking for spiders 😳
