2/1

Maggie is eating better with the Merrick duck, still not always with gusto, but I feel much better. I've started her on digestive enzymes, so hopefully it will just keep improving.
DH and I went to my mom's to fix her kitchen faucet and it turned into a much longer full replacement job. Maggie hadn't had any food all afternoon, so I fed her at +11, so the PS of 127 was food influenced. I was surprised by a BG of 69 at +3. Lowest nadir I've caught in 3 weeks!

I'm glad she is eating better. I hope the digestive enzymes help. Nice to see that 69 last night. I hope she heads to the lagoon today.

I’m glad the duck is working out for now. I hope she keeps interested in it. Are the digestive enzymes for pancreatitis? I’ve been reading a little bit about it, is it supposed to take the load off for it to calm down a bit? I want to address the pancreatitis as soon as some of the more immediate issues relax.

Nice +3, hopefully a sign of better things to come. Feel better, Maggie girl!

Are the digestive enzymes for pancreatitis?

Yes, they help in pancreas, kidney and liver functions. They aid digestion and absorption of nutrients. I like how you said it, "take the load off"! Hoping they help with IBD too.

Oh, they help with all those things? I didn't know! Tell me more, tell me more. Where did you read about them, what kind to give and how much?

Oh that's music to my ears (sorry tho), I thought I was they only one with DMIL projects that doubled and tripled in size . I'm sure Maggie will return to normal.

Possible IBD led me to them after this condo earlier this week. Honestly, I didn't do any deep research into them... An IBD group recommends them, so I went for it. @Carol in Chicago sent me some Dr Goodpet which touts "Protease, amylase, lipase and cellulase enzymes (derived from Aspergillus) Trichoderma, Lactobacillus acidophilus." Dr Goodpet mentions helping the trifecta of organs, so I thought, all the better! Dosage says 1/2 teaspoon per cup of food. I'm doing 1/16 teaspoon with 4-6 meals a day.
