Yesterday, more yellow and pink. :sad:
I got tired of seeing Neko's numbers go higher as her dose got higher, so this morning we are trying a reboot. As the saying goes "don't try this at home kids". There's a reason I have the phrase Neko is an acrocat, do not copy dosing in my signature. The mechanics of her diabetes are different than the majority. She has a pituitary tumor sending out excess growth hormones which lead to a competition with her regular insulin. The radiation therapy (SRT) neutered the tumor cells and the tumor itself can wax and wane. Unfortunately, Neko isn't very good at telling me what's happening internally right now. I generally follow the TR protocol, but Neko's numbers did not seem right for her. All I could see was her dose rising and her numbers getting steadily worse. I could very well be wrong, but I had to try this. It could be she needs even more insulin, we won't linger overly long at the lower dose.
Neko seems fine, no change in behaviour. She got her 5 P's done early including a visit to Nannerville and CPC as usual. Neko let me know that the hummingbird was back at it's feeder right after her breakfast. The feeder is at the window above her feeding dish. She was hanging around the kitchen as I was making muffins, so I slipped her a tiny piece of unsalted butter as a hairball remover. She does love butter!
