Copernicus went to ER for cystitis last night and he was transferred to NC State vet school. I missed the update and I am panicking. They said his BG was 100. He has never been that low. And now they won't let me talk to anyone because they are busy. I don't think they are feeding him enough. Or maybe they are only feeding him with his insulin instead of every 3 hours. Or maybe a student gave the wrong dose. What should I do?!
 
You will get more response if you keep posting on the Lantus forum.

As to what to do about the 100 - celebrate! Finally! Is NCSU reasonably close to you? You could always pack up some of his food and drop by with it. It's harder to ignore someone at the front desk than on a phone.

If he isn't getting fed often enough, he develops ketones. I could probably get his BG low too if I starved him too. I know I sound dramatic but it's taken me a lot of effort to clear his ketones. And I did that by feeding him
 
Is it possible he's not eating as much at the hospital? That's a good excuse to stop by with his food. I was trying to be positive that he's finally getting into better blood sugar numbers.

I know you are. It's good that I have you all to be positive! I need to learn to celebrate. Everything has been an expensive fire drill so my mind goes to the worst place. Plus I don't like not knowing what is going on. If I don't hear something soon, I will use your food idea. Thank you.
