Yesterday

Interesting cycle for Bell, I really can't predict where she is going anymore. I decided to hold the 6.5 dose a little longer after last night's blue. Looks like we have more blues on her PM cycle today. Curious about any thoughts on if I should increase tomorrow or hold for another couple cycles... Bell is eating less than normal, but she usually feels a little icky when she hits blues for the first time. She is doing really well other than that - had some people over for dinner and Bell was out and about taking in all the plays and lovin.

She thinks I can't see her under there...

I’m jealous of that social time, Pookey would never. Let’s see some more blues tonight!!

Bell runs to the door anytime someone comes by. I think she is tired of me. Blair runs straight under the bed.

What is your target range for nadirs for Bell?

 

[bluesunshine]

My previous target has been the greens, since I want to get her into remission. I don't know how likely that is now. I thought maybe letting her ease into the blues before increasing would prevent some of the extended bouncing that she had after the 12/19 and 12/22 cycles. Seems a lot more work for her to repeat those greens. The last 3 cycles have been (relatively) lower and flatter than she's had in awhile, which I'm sure is a nice break for her. I still want to push and be aggressive, though.

Until we know why she needs a higher dose, we don't know if remission is in the cards or not. I've seen remission both with cats with IAA and with acromegaly.

Letting a cat ease into blues doesn't work to reduce bouncing. Rip off that band aid and go for greens.

I hope tomorrow Bell will come through with some low blues and some nice green

Aye aye, you don’t have to tell me twice . Increase tomorrow unless I catch a green tonight

Thank you Diane!

Lucky 7 ….
I also noticed what I thought was Minner feeling a little icky when she first started seeing blue. I was worried whether that was sign of a problem. So it’s good to know that’s been observed in others. That concern did wane as her overall demeanor shifted to more activity.

 

[Staci & Ivy]

Good luck with the increase Seth and Bell. Hope it gives you nice numbers in a gentle cycle.

Glad to hear Bell was such a social girl last night. She’s so adorable and cheeky!

 

[cecile & bella]

I love your pictures, Bell is so beautiful.
Good lck with the increase if she does not show green today, but who knows where she is going!

 

[Heike & BInie]

Good luck with the increase Seth! I love your conversations with Wendy. I learn a lot. And I admire your courage to increase. I hope this will soon be rewarded with more

Great photo of your sweet beautiful girl. So funny that she thinks she's hiding!
