Beta-Hydroxybutyrate, what the blood ketone meter measures. Since learning that the reading from that isn't actually a "ketone" reading like you would get from a urine strip, I wanted to clarify which reading it is.

Okay think I'll stick to ketone.... It's easier for me to remember even though I use meter for it.
 
271@+6. b-ohb 2.0. Gave him 200ml sub-q. Also got a urine stick, ketones were darker than neg but not dark enough for trace, so 1-4.
 
266@+10, b-ohb 2.1. Numbers are no good. I'm going to give him a bit more of the R at tonight's shot. Gotta get this BG down. We've got a vet apt tomorrow to get blood work done.
 
PMPS 254, 11lbs 15oz, b-ohb 2.4. Not great, hitting that ketone borderline. Going to give him some more sub-q fluids and a larger dose of R and keep an eye on him. I'll get a urine stick on him next time he pees to see where the ketones are actually at. It just doesn't make any sense, everything else is normal.
