I increased Taz's insulin to 1.5 this morning.

Today he's very active and really hungry, but he's careful when laying down and there's a lot of lip licking going on. Its almost identical behavior to when he had his last pancreatitis episode (2/12). I just gave him cerenia and I'll give some bupe as it gets closer to dinner time. Will the pancreatitis ever go away?

The last couple of days he's been nadiring around +7. Normal for him was around +3.

Nadirs move around on most cats. Unfortunately it sounds like chronic pancreatitis and it comes and goes. Max had fewer episodes once his diabetes was controlled. He had chronic pancreatitis fir a few years before becoming diabetic. I got better at managing jus symptoms. Catching them early and I think that helped.

I really hope his pancreas heals and they'll disappear. But I have to be realistic that this might be a lifelong thing. I don't think he ever had an episode until the one when he was diagnosed with diabetes. He has a vet visit tomorrow, so I'm hoping to get some zofran. Cerenia is just too expensive if each episode is going to last several days.

It looks like we're in for a repeat of 2/11. His numbers are almost identical to that day so far.
