...fingers crossed that that's a good omen for a good vetty visit.
I think it's called "Doodles way", he sure likes his all or nothing playbook.
Well, looks like he's getting out of the vet visit with that +2 unless he comes up a bit. Tried giving him a bit of gravy, not interested but he's eating some LC. His BG's tend to go down during/after a vetty visit. Still have an hour or so to decide but not too comfortable packing him up with these numbers
I think we're going to reschedule...the little stink
He wouldn't eat what I gave him just now...honestly think he'd eat at the vets or better yet on the side of the road with a 1/2 hour ride? I could see it now "excuse me Dr. Vet while I syringe honey" but don't worry, no need for you to give dosing advise
We rescheduled for next week, no biggie. Ah, Doodles has been known to drop on vet visit days. Usually it's after we're back home but no need to chance it
The last 4 vetty visits (12/21 & 11/1, 7/29 & 7/14) he dropped every time with the before leaving and arriving back home test. He was high so it was OK. No guarantee it would happen but wasn't going to chance it.
I hear you! Unbelievable to me how some cats drop from stress since mine were the opposite. When's the new appointment?
Tuesday, the 17th. I'll go ahead and get the renal panel done then too and cancel the Feb. 3rd appt.
okay - that is really weird!!! just like Murf goes green before our drive back and forth to Chicago (not today though)
He's doing his own thing again and is nice to see a good surf! Funny how things change though. If you look at last Jan 2016 and Dec. 2015 I shot plenty of 50's & 60's, he surfed all green and I'd go to sleep at PM +4 and have no worries. Never had to use honey to bring his numbers up, just a little LC and he never went lower then mid 40's. Then it all changed when IAA and heart disease came into the picture landing up at 12u of Lantus before switching to Levemir. Once you see your cat in the 20's and 30's, not come up for hours regardless of how much honey/ high carb food and also stumbling/disoriented, walking in circles looking at his tail and vomiting/ shaking....those low numbers are no longer "comfortable". So now, Doodles gets reductions at 60/70 even though he's long term diabetic and we play the up and down the dose game.
My vets still continue to argue with me that Levemir is too strong of an insulin. I'd never get another script if I had to do that and we've exhausted all vets in the area
This is the first pen (started 5 days ago) I've used that is actually coming from a pharmacy and not the black market. The last box and reason I switch pens twice was delivered over the summer in 100 degree temps and I suspected it was at full potency. With the sudden change, wacky numbers and now these greens....thinking that last box was malfunctioning.
Doodles sure has good vet radar. Whatever you do, don't put the day of the rescheduled visit in your condo. We know the kitties love to read them.
He sure is reminding you of the fact he is a 30's or 300's kind of guy. Come on Doodles, give the bean a break! Sounds like your spidey sense was right on today with rescheduling the visit.54 @ +6.....gravy on board
Too late! She did it!
She's just teasing you, Doodles. The new appointment isn't even this month, honest! It's in February.
Thanks to honey and 2 packets of gravy, he'll come back down again
