    biscuit was dx about 3 weeks ago, he started with 1 unit of Lantus. Did a curve at home and the vet increased Lantus to 2 units last week. Another curve is coming up, but having problems with the vet office, they call with someone elses appt, doesn't fill out prescriptions correctly, and more. Anyway, Biscuits blood glucose last night before his dose was 170, so only gave him one unit. This morning, after eating and before any insulin, his glucose is 165. Plan to do a curve today, but unsure about dosing. His first curve lowest number was 274, highest was 570

    Welcome. We ask you to start in the main forum and get set up there with a signature and a spreadsheet as we can’t give dosing advice without that information. While you are here read the yellow stickies at the top of this forum. Start with this one which explains the dosing methods we recommend.

    You will see that we increase and decrease in .25 increments to start so as not to miss a good dose.

    I see you did post on main so get set up there and then come back here.
