Nice vet report. I hope when you go in next week they do not intend to charge for the visit. As far as the BGs go. I agree with Miriam. None of us know what the average/normal bg was prior to diagnosis. There are many cats that have a bg lower then 50. Tuffy will drop into the 30s some days.
I also believe the vets do not know much about nutrition in general for any species. On diagnosis, prior to finding FDMB, my vet put Tuffy, and all the others, on DM dry with the statement, "I have had many cats go into remission on this diet". I have switched all the kitties to wet food.
I hope you succeeded in educating your vet. Gives us all a glimmer of hope for future diagnosed diabetic kitties.
) I had always thought his practice was only large animal but found out through someone else that he has been doing small animals with some other vets on board. He is having a staff meeting and will be at the practice next week and today's guy thought that he would enjoy seeing Morpheus again as they originally talked together about his case and were debating about recommending euthanizing him but they decided to try something since I was such a pitful sight and a former school mate. I hope that I get the chance to really talk to him about the diabetes management. In the meantime I am grateful I got a second chance with Morpheus even though it appears he has spent 8 of his 9 lives.
