Hello LL!

here we are, Luna, DBF Shawn, and I, opening a condo cuz Luna decided to fall off the wagon on what would of been his 11 months OTJ today. ohmygod_smile

As shown on our SS, Luna gets checked every month on his annifursary date.

So I began yesterday and surprise, surprise, what are you doing up there Luna?
I am bummed out yea, not panicking, as u can see from our WCR, he is mocking me by being all fine and dandy. Even doing rollee-pollee's, little picklebutt! cat(2)_steam

WCR:
Besides a couple of wee little burps in the past few days, his usual indicator of a not-very-often toss up, I waited and waited for a hairball and more signs of tummy troubles, but nothing else came out of it. It's been 24 hours of these numbers now, and nothing else has changed. The highest we recorded was 334 last nite around +4

He has a little wee scratch on his head from scratching a bit too hard about a week ago, got his nails trimmed, cleaned it with a wet cloth a few days ago, healing fine. Barely there. Been there, done that.

All P's in check, we peeked at his teeth yesterday, nothing unusual, no stinky breath, but seeing nothing doesn't always indicate all is peachy. Luna has never had a dental, he has had teeth looked at with a suggestion for cleaning couldn't hurt. Couldn't get to that this past year due to having being unemployed most of the year.
Come the new year, it is something we will look into.

Eating fine, no visible signs of struggling to chew, (Wellness turkey and chicken) adding a little extra water to his food, no action on the water bowl, alert, playing, chasing his sis, napping, pee and poop is fine. Yappy yappy, I'm so cute attitude.

No signs of being "off". Whatever is up his causing the rise - we will get to the bottom of it. :lol:

Stocked up on all supplies, waiting on a pee/ketones check today.

So, Luna will be going for a vetty visit tomorrow kicking and screaming, if they can squeeze him in.
He is a very stressed kitty when he goes on a trip, but on the bright side, he really liked his new vet from last year, Dr W.
Amazingly enough, he was very calm the last time he saw her.
DBF is off work earlier than me during the work week, and we'll see when he can get Luna in there for a full check up, C&S, labs, teeth checked etc...

The plan for today is to continue to monitor today, to see how high into the pinks he gets, and crack open the Lantus for his favourite fat zero dose for a 5pm shot.

We both work during the week, so will have to shoot an hour earlier than our old schedule. And sorree, no tickee, no washee for us, cuz there will be no nadir checks till da weekend. :lol:

And so it begins.

yesterdays testing numbers based on our old 12/12 (6am/6pm)schedule:

AM: +4/210
+5/230
+7.5/253
+11/291

PM: +2/329
+4/334
+6.5/304

this morning
AM: +12.5/253
SS is updated.

Let's have some fun! :lol:
Have a great Sunday everyone!
:-D
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Good luck at the vet and hang in there. It's been people like you that have inspired me. If you got Luna otj before, I know it can happen again.

Happy Sunday

Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

awww, I'm sorry, Ronnie. Maybe now that you typed all this, Luna will surprise you tonight. It wouldn't be the strangest thing he has ever done. :lol:

I hope the vet finds something easily fixable.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

I hope this is just a quick trip away from The Falls.
Good luck at the vet's tomorrow.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Hey Ronnie,
I didn't want to hear this news!!! Let's hope it is just a blip. Maybe it's "winter". It certainly sounds as if he is being his normal self, but you are wise to get him to the vet tomorrow, just to check him out. We'll be thinking of you tomorrow.

And we're thinking of you today, too. It's been a week, and we met you and Linda at McDonald's in Kingston just about this time (mid morning) last Sunday. There you were, with Rusty in your lap and a big smile on your face. The Big Fluffy Guy sends his love, and all of us send good wishes for Luna to get back to good numbers.

Many hugs,
Ella & Rusty
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

OH NO! Luna - what ARE you doing here???

Ronnie, about the teeth, when I took Shadoe in, she had never been and her teeth looked like they just needed cleaning, but once under and the vet had a closer look, she saw 4 iffy ones, and they did Xrays, and found that her upper right canine that did not 'look bad, just iffy' was quite bad on Xray and was extracted.

You never know. For sure get the dental done and that way it's over and done with and you have a good starting point. He may well have a bit of an infection and is just not showing any signs.

And maybe he just needs a wee bit of a boost for a short time.

Good luck at the vets, and pats and scratches for Luna and Bast.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

i'm sorry you are back like Rocket and I....perhaps you are here for a short visit....
hope the vet gets to the bottom of it!

Luna and Rocket decided to keep us on our toes like before...didn't they?
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

ohmygod_smile Hiya, Ronnie! Always a pleasure to "see" you & Luna.. but we have to stop meeting like this!
Luna is in the hands of an expert & lets hope the trip to Lantus Land is short lived. Thinking of you all... cat_pet_icon
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Aww, Ronnie, sorry to see that Luna jumped ship, so to speak. Maybe he heard about all the parties we have in LL and just wanted to hang out for a while and visit and see a few of his old friends. Hopefully he will get his fill and head back to the falls sooner than later.
Hope vet visit is a good one for Luna and I hope that they can find some answer as to why numbers are higher. I remember the last time I took Spot to vet, because his numbers were heading upwards, it wasn't our regular vet. I explained to her that I was there to get Spot checked because his numbers were higher and I wanted to make sure that there wasn't anything medically going on. She couldn't understand why I wanted a check up...of course his pancreas isn't working right, he's diabetic! I tried to explain to her that he was OTJ for a while, but I don't think she quite got what I was telling her. Left there feeling very frustrated, so I hope that you don't have to go through that.
Whatever is going on with Luna, I wish you luck!!!
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Luna??? You back with us??? Nah - you really don't want to do that, do you? Well I hope this is just "blip" and things will be back to normal.... Aiyee! Never thought I'd be posting on a Luna condo... Best of luck! I hope the visit here is short-lived.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Lunar Module dude...

throw ronnie a big spitball and be in da good numbahs for the next test...

PLEASE???
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Awwww shucks!!!

Hoping just for something easily fixed to help to bring Luna's numbers down again. Paws crossed.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Sorry Ronnie. Maybe Luna just wanted to rent a condo for a brief time so he could spend time with old friends during the holidays.

I'm glad you're getting Luna checked out and sincerely hope that whatever caused your kitty to fall off the wagon is temporary.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

I'm sorry Ronnie...I think Luna just knows how valuable your personality is to LL and decided to bring your cheerful-self back.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Well this just plain stinks!
What is up with you Luna besides your bg. I too think this is just a little blip and Luna will be back to the Fall's very soon.
 
AMBG +4.5/318

AMBG

I did forget to mention, yesterday I accidently poked thru his ear and he bled like a stuck pig and splatter my face and glasses. oh joy. :lol:
precious ears bleeding nicely now lol!!

thank u so much everyone for your thoughts and encouragement!
I giggle everytime I see his subject line, we be ok thru this blip of a blip....reminds me of the time he fell of the bed, lol!!

:YMHUG: u guys is always da best! seriously!
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

ROONNIE!!! LUUNNAA!!!!! Sorry to see Luna fell off the wagon! Hopefully this will just be a quick visit & back to the Falls you will go!
Of course, we always love hearing from you--
And so the other Ronnie returns with the ever sweet Luna!! It's a new Moon today, hope this brings another new beginning for you both ,back to OTJ!
Big Hugs to you all!
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Luna! What's going on? Is it the tunaritas? Keeping your spot here at the falls waiting for you.
Get better!
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Wow...I'm like some of the other newbies...never thought I'd see a Luna condo!! The positive part is it enables us to have Ronnie around more :lol: :lol: I'm with Gayle on the dental....same thing happened to one of our civvies....everything looked fine outwardly but he is prone to tarter no matter how much I brush his teeth. When they
got in there, it was ugly...he had to have two teeth removed. That little boy never once acted sensitive when I brushed his teeth...never stopped eating. So...they can surprise you. Hope it's something simple and Mannie will soon be coming up with an OTJ party menu for Luna!!
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Luna what are you doing to your Bean maybe its the I want more attention sort of thing :?: hope this is a very brief trip away from the falls
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Good luck, I hope it is a minor problem that can be cleared up soon. You are our inspiration as Luna had his OTJ party the day we started Lantus.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Hi Ronnie! Hi Luna! Hi Shawn!

I was thinking the same thing as Sienne...

Maybe Luna just wants to spend the holidays with us. You may be disappointed but it's nice to have ya' back :mrgreen:

Love,
Caryl, Alex & Jackson

So, how many meters you wearing? ;-)
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

I guess Luna wants to go to some of those LL holiday parties with Mannie and Rusty and the other kitties.

You did recheck these numbers with one of your back up meters, right?
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

hi ya'll,
what up? :lol:

yea, the numbers from yesterday were checked on another meter.
was using the iTest and now back to my trusty One Touch.

let's see...
recap:
AMBG @ +12.5/253
+3-ish/snack
+4.5/318
+5.5/289
+8.5/277 and he is getting his afternoon snack
PMPS in about 3 hour. Will do a +11, cuz we like those. :-D

hmmm..interesting numbers. not saying nothing else.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon

Ronnie what a shock it must have been to see those numbers. I am so sorry for this but I think this is going to be short lived and you will have him back in the green fast. I was wondering like Linda, did you use your Freestyle to double check, it really is the most accurate in higher numbers. Hope your appointment tomorrow will come up with something simple so the pretty boy gets back to the falls lickety split I hear it from a reliable source that Muffin is missing him.

Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253 he fell off da wagon/+8.5/277

Oh......Luna!!!

What are you doing to your Mama bean.

Ronnie, not the Christmas present you were wanting I'm sure.
You just panicked me into being mor diligent in testing Max.
What a great idea to do it on his anniversary date.

I hope you get some answers from the vet tomorrow.
((hugs))

I'll be keeping an eye out.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253,+8.5/277, +10/300

Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253/PMPS 277 fat drop we go

Ronnie,

Sorry to hear this, but it isn't the end of the world. I know that you will do what it takes to get Luna back OTJ! And I am betting it is sooner than later!!

Keep us posted please!

Judy & Jake
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253/PMPS 277 fat drop we go

Hi Ronnie,

Hoping that you will get an answer at the vets as to why Luna's #'s have gone up and that it's a quick fix. Glad you caught it and are acting fast to stop those #'s in their tracks.

Good luck at the vets. :smile:

jan and sara
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253/PMPS 277 fat drop we go

Great catch, especially since all the P's are in place. Hope it's a short visit and he'll be soon be back relaxing at the falls!
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253/PMPS 277 fat drop we go

Hi Ronnie,
I just saw your condo; I'm so sorry. I have a feeling it's just a hiccup in the road, and Luna will be back partying at the Falls again in no time. Good luck at the Vetty tomorrow.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253/PMPS 277 fat drop we go

Best of luck Ronnie.
It will be interesting to see how this tiny drop of insulin affects him after almost a year OTJ.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253/PMPS 277 fat drop we go

I was so surpized to see your condo, Ronnie. :o Probably like you were when you saw those numbers. :shock: I hope Luna will turn around quickly and get rid of the juice. :YMHUG:
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253, PMPS 277, +2/291, +3/271

hi guys!

Not much happening here.
Luna is sitting on the yellows, even for onset, but he's gotta build that little wee shed of his I-)
...SS updated, eating well, had a nice poop, but nothing magical about it, ...poked around the same xmas tree he poked around in last year :lol:
don't touch that, don't touch that, you can sit underneath but don't touch! cat_pet_icon

Got my notes ready for tomorrow, plus his numbers, if they can squeeze us in after my work that would be great!
if not, it may tuesday, so we shall see what they say in the morning.

Thank you so very much for all the visits! We hope it won't be for long either!
I be back before my bedtime, Shawn will prob do the last check after that.
 
Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253, PMPS 277, +2/291, +3/271

What? Luna's got a condo?

What is going on with the world???

Luna's going to be back at the Falls in no time...

Do I have to send you a copy of the typical Lantus cycle/curve, since you've been away for so long? Someone used to send that to me all the time...

Re: 12/05 ~ Luna~AMBG 253, PMPS 277, +2/291, +3/271

Ronnie, I hope Luna will be back at the Falls before you know it! Paws crossed that the vet will find something easily fixable.
 
Wow, I had to do a double take when I saw this!! I'm just used to getting great advice from you...not used to seeing condo's!!! Hope Luna is ok and that you have a good trip to the vet tomorrow!!! Let us know what they find out!!
