It's been busy around here, so I haven't been posting much. Tomorrow is hopefully Dallas' last day on insulin! I know I should have tested after the 112 number last night, but I just couldn't stay awake He has been acting like a younger version of himself since starting a new medication for arthritis and changing his food. I love seeing it! Last post: https://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/threads/08-15-dallas-amps-76-3-83.267163/#post-2989648
Wondering if you want to err on the side of caution and try a drop dose for a week. We usually recommend that for cats that see some blues on 0.10U. @tiffmaxee what do you think?
I’m on the fence on this one. There are only a few blues and only one over 100. It couldn’t hurt to try a drop dose since this would be a second remission. Aren’t you going on vacation? If so when do you leave?
We were going to go away this weekend, but might be going 27th and 28th now. I also start work again next Wednesday and I am unsure what my work schedule will be like.
So do you want to try the drop dose? You could then stop a few days before you go away if you go on the 27th. Then see how he does until you go back to work.
Sure! Tomorrow is his last day on 0.10, could I do the drop dose for 5 days instead of 7? That would take him until the day before I go back to work. If that could cause some issues I’ll figure it out.
Let’s see how he does with the drop dose and decide Tuesday. There’s always the chance he will tell us he’s done sooner too.
