Good evening LL,

I know that her numbers are not a strong as we would like for an OTJ trial and that I haven't managed to hold the 0.1 dose for a week because I keep skipping. I'd like to try anyway. I just have the feeling that she's been going low in the mornings and I've been missing checking her. I'm struggling to manage my hypoglycaemia and keep missing her morning tests. I don't want her to be going low without knowing about it. What do you think? I skipped tonight because it just felt to hard.

I'm also going to take her back to the vets and get her blood tested. I've gotten scared of kidney failure after hearing a few sudden stories on the board. I'm getting a good tax return so the pressure is off a little bit.

We also have to move house again in four weeks. I've only been here three and a half weeks! I've unpacked all my stuff that I had shipped from Sydney. The next will be my sixth house that I've lived in (including 3 two week stays with friends before I had somewhere) and the 4th new place the cats have lived in since the beginning of April! Any way, I think it will be a blessing in disguise. This house isn't working for me or for the cats. My mum's boarder has just given notice so she has a room there that I can stay in for as long as I need to on low rent. I think it will be good for both the kitties and I to get away from the stress of this house (cat fights and a difficult housemate). It will be lovely to be able to feel secure and with family again.

Thanks again for your help,

Grace
 
Hi Grace,

I can't answer you about the trial, but I hope that this next move is your last for awhile. It is always good to be near people that can give you support and love. Usually family fits the bill - especially mums!! And kitties love no stress :-D :-D

Good luck with the trial if you do it - Cleo's trial is on day 10, and I have decided not to stress over her higher numbers. The insulin,if she needs it again,will always be there. Her CKD is a little scarier, no insulin to fix that. I don't blame you for testing her again.

Have a wonderful day -- night??

Hi Grace ~O) ~O) ~O)

I too can't answer the question on a trial, but it does seem like she's ready, esp since you are skipping shots. I hope one of the advisors can pitch in soon. I wish you much luck if you decide to try.

Sorry for another move, but it does sounds like this one will be a good one. It would be nice to be with family again. Wishing you the best!
 
Hi guys .. well unfortunately no trial advice from me either .. but if you've had to skip a lot of shots lately .. it makes you wonder :-D Sorry to hear about the move again, but it sounds like you'll be in a much better place .. have a great night!
 
Sounds like a much better move for all This time....
Kitties prefer low stress.... and other unfriendly cats are probably too much.

If you start a trial, be sure and test to see if Angie is staying in range.
She's been so close and you want to give her pancreas all the support you can until it's good to go on it's own.
