Re: 2/10 Ruben ambg 161

(((( rhiannon )))) - you are absolutely right, I am grateful for the number. but i just can't believe how much my perception has changed since his diagnosis.
thank you so much for the prayers, i truly believe they have been instrumental in lil ruben's progress. sending out prayers to all kitties and there parents here. everyday is a gift.
 
Re: 2/10 Ruben ambg 161

Ruben is looking good, and it sounds like things are finally settling down for you guys. Yes, the power of LL prayers truly is amazing!! Have a great day, Sam...and let's head to the lagoon with some greens, Ruben :mrgreen: !

Looking good today, Ruben! Hope he keeps sliding down to the low 100's or the pretty greens! Have a great day!

So, if Ruben is in remission, can i free feed through out the day. i've been opening two cans of ff in 2 dishes and i let ruben and maple nibble when they want. i have been keeping an eye on what ruben seems to be getting ( maple is a lil piggy :smile: ) i pull up there food 2 hrs. before, test and then open 2 more cans, free feed then +3. repeat. if i noticed one of the dishes are low i'll open a new can and refill.
He ran today(playing, chasing lil maple head) for the first time in 3 weeks. :o it was better than waking on christmas morning and finding a kitten in your stocking. :-D
the healing powers fdmb has is unbelievable that we all should be walking around wearing capes, :mrgreen: :mrgreen: super hero's, you guys are amazing here

Sam

Glad to hear he is feeling so well, eating and playing!!! Awesome.

So we don't call them in remission until they've been in an official OTJ trial for two weeks. We're still just watching Ruben for right now because these numbers are just a little higher than we'd like to see them. He should be staying (on the Alpha Trak), under 150 and we don't usually start an OTJ trial until they are.

You can free feed him and that is best for his pancreas.....if he eats small meals all day.

Come on Ruben....you only need to come down a tiny bit more!!!
 
Re: 2/10 Ruben ambg 161 +3 153

I would keep with the small meals until we can get these numbers stabilized a little lower.

He didn't come down very much from the AMBG to the +3. I know it's too late to do this today, but there are a couple of things you can try if he does this again.

One - if the +3 number isn't much lower than the before food number, try testing again after another hour. Some cats take longer than 3 hours to bring themselves down after eating.

Two - if the +4 still isn't much lower, try feeding another small meal, then testing after another 3 hours. Since we know he can bring his numbers down a little bit after eating a small meal, the goal there is to see if giving another small meal might help bring the numbers down even more.

If he doesn't start keeping his own numbers down, then it might be time soon to talk about resuming insulin. He has been trending upward so we're keeping an eye on his numbers.

ugh, trying to stay positive, but seemed just slightly off a lil bit ago, maybe he over done it today with playing. the feeling that comes over me is the worst feeling in the world. i wish i could controll it. still manifesting good things and looking on the bright side, its just that i know i put to much of my own feelings into him. its like im fine when he fine but the minute he seems off i get sick to my stomach :YMSIGH: working on it
 
Re: 2/10 Ruben ambg 161 +3 153

Oh, Sam....I totally know how you feel. When any of my kitties re the least bit off, my stomach goes into a huge knot. At least we're not alone :YMHUG: !!!
 
Re: 2/10 Ruben pmbg 108 words are no enough

pmbg 108 eating now gona get a +3 and depending on that number a +4
literally in tears, over joyed at this number. i dont know why im so emotional when it comes to this. you all do it and your kitties are hanging in there. thank you for my inspiration. this is one of those lessons in life where i need to grow. ruben again makes me a better person. always learning from him
he is so special, i wish you could all feel his energy he really is a special being. an old wise soul who looks out for me. keep praying and manifesting cat_pet_icon o:-) :YMHUG:
 
Re: 2/10 Ruben pmbg 108 words are no enough

Nice!! I so understand what you mean, Sam, about being so emotionally involved. When one of my kitties is sick, I just can't do anything else, even little things like laundry, it's so emotionally exhausting worrying about them. You've come a long way in a short time. Great job!
 
Re: 2/10 Ruben pmbg 108 words are no enough

Exciting stuff going on with Ruben! :RAHCAT

Have a great night -

Libby (& Hershey, too!)
 
Re: 2/10 Ruben pmbg 108 words are no enough

Now that's what I call a GREAT number. Attaboy Ruben!!!!

Calm, courage, strength....you can do it, Sam.

carl- :lol: :lol:
im glad rubens number is under 150 but sad it higher than pmbg think he may have been snaking and i missed it.
love you guys
 
After PMBG, has he eaten more? Could the 120 be "food"? Also, given meter variance, (I think even AlpahTracs can be off by up to 20% + or -), the two numbers are pretty much the same thing. They're both in the "normal range" for an AT meter.

Carl

ETA - I don't really have any reason to test Bob more than once in a while, but I'd be willing to bet that if I ran a "curve" on him during the course of a day, his numbers wouldn't just be the same all day long. They might run from 50 to 90 depending on when he last ate. I usually get a number in the 60-75 range just testing him at a random time.
