12/18 Rosie AMPS 94 +5 63

[Carol in Chicago]

Rose is getting into the holiday spirit by showing off lots of green!

@Marje and Gracie - I read "racing down the scale" observations posted for @Stacy & Asia with interest. I didn't want to hijack that thread with my question. I'm thinking Rose is category 1 (depot overfills and is impacted by many more cycles than would be typical). Would you agree? If so, what should I be doing differently? She is currently in her 3rd major phase of reductions.

She is looking so good! Bubba went racing down the dosing ladder during his first rodeo with insulin too. Good thing you are able to monitor her a lot.

Although my Gracie was on a much lower dose, we did that same dance for 5-1/2 years. She’d get down to a low dose and then fizzle out and I’d go back up to get her back to a good breakthrough dose. With these cats, the longer you are able to hold them at a good dose by feeding a higher LC food (which enables you to get more insulin safely into them), the better they do.
