Probably the best numbers since her diagnosis! Lots of green -- went all the way down to 58 for the first time but was rising 20 mins later and she did not seem to be uncomfortable. This dose seems to be doing well for her. Preshot numbers have been trending downward as well. Possibly a reduction in the future?

I have a hurricane coming towards me as we speak and hoping this will not affect Deenies too dramatically.
 
Such nice numbers! :bighug::bighug::bighug: I saw your remark about the syringes. Many people here use callipers, which help to keep the dose consistent. If you search it, you will find all the info and many people can help. I use paper rulers - but that is a German oddity. :)

Thank you, I'm so proud of her! :):bighug:

That is great info on the callipers, I'll definitely have to look into it. It's surprising how much syringes brands can differ from each other!

The problem is, not only that the brands differ. The printed scale always differ a tiny bit how it is printed on the syringe. Even same brand. Using this ruler I found out, that the difference is very often around 0.5 IU. For humans (and the syringes are made for humans), 0.5 IU is nothing. For cats, it's a lot.

Glad she is doing so well. Keep up the good work.
Sending you lots of safe and good wishes with the hurricane. Hope it doesn’t come where you are. Please stay safe with your family and Deenies :bighug::bighug::bighug:
