Should I get up and grab a +7 or +8 overnight? She's giving me wacky numbers and she could be going lower during that time but I just don't know. It seems like her nadir during the first cycle is +12 but PM I have no clue what is going on. This mornings +3 is lower (or close to the same with meter variance) which should mean an active cycle because she typically rises at +3. I used to have this girl sort of figured out but not so much anymore.

Since we're going to the vet tomorrow to give Acupuncture a try I called to see if we can get an xray in. They will certainly do so. Her cough is not gone, heard it today and it sounds like a person with bad bronchitis. But its rare when she coughs. I was reading @Susan G & Jimmy G post yesterday and xray will show organs, arthritis, inflammation so I figured we should get that done to see what, if anything, else is going on. Tomorrow is last day of AB and it is round two so I'm thinking its not an infection and acro related. Hope to be wrong.

Good luck with the acupuncture. Doodles had it for neuropathy. It doesn't look like Beenie did anything to funny last night and it could've been a bit of NDW. You have a good mix of tests but tossing in a random mid cycle night test here and there is a good idea. Not sure if they checked her for asthma but might be something to look into although it could be a challenge to dx.

Tiff also had a cough...trouble breathing and congestion about a month ago. Vet did a chest x-ray to make sure it was not her heart and then gave me an antibiotic for UTI. It did clear it up, but I spent 5 days through the weekend in a steamy bathroom helping her to clear congestion. In my experience, her BG numbers are higher when there is something else going on as well. Hope Beenie feels better soon!!! We are pulling for her and hoping for the best for her!
 
I set the alarm to catch a +7 overnight to see if it sheds any light to her overnight cycle. Thanks for the vetty vines:bighug:. I so hope this gabapentin works. I was given a pre-filled syringe of 1.5ml. I asked the vet tech if I could add it to a snack and she said ok. I've never shot meds into Beenie's mouth. She gobbles just about anything up in her plate so mixing it with a smidgen of FF naturals seems easier:smuggrin:
