Good morning!

Well, Corduroy's AMPS was 386 this morning. Ugh! Anyway, I shot through the bounce and still gave him .10. Is this what I should've done? After last night's responses to my question, I thought it was the right thing to do. I really want his body to get used to having those lower numbers so his liver won't freak out as much. I also started feeding him the raw turkey mixed with the Feline's Pride pre-mix again this morning. Before, when I was feeding him this stuff, he had that rash, but I think it was due to fleas, not the food or the pre-mix...hopefully! I just want to feed him the closest thing to his natural diet if possible to see if it helps get that blood sugar down. I know we will have to really watch him though, especially with the next-to-nothing-carb food.

Thanks for the help last night everyone!!! I hope you have a great Wednesday and that your kitties take a safe dip in the lagoon! :mrgreen:
 
Re: 10/16, Corduroy, AMPS=386. OK to Still Give .10?

Keep in mind that any food changes that you do may make his #s bounce, so don't panic. Hopefully someone will come by to give you dosing advice. Have a good day.
 
Re: 10/16, Corduroy, AMPS=386. DOSE QUESTION?

Shooting through the bounce was exactly the right thing to do.

Just to tweek Angela's comment, food changes can cause slightly elevated numbers for a brief period. I wouldn't really call it a "bounce" since it's not the same mechanism. In addition, not all cats respond to food changes with temporarily higher numbers

HI guys .. fingers crossed corduroy clears his bounce soon .. good luck with the new food, hope the numbers don't rise from it .. have a great day guys!

Thanks Marge! I keep forgetting to post that!
 
Oh man, now I don't know if his numbers are rising due to the new food or a bounce! These numbers are crazy! His PMPS was 473 and his +2 was 411. :sad: I'm getting very discouraged because it seems like nothing really works.
