Thanks Sienne and Amy. I think a good hug--and cry--is exactly what I need today. I'm really hoping with the dose increase I see the numbers drop a bit tomorrow. My gut was telling me she might need a .5 increase instead of .25, since the only 3 times she's had in the 200's this past week was the HIGH 200's. We'll see.
Amy, yes, I've been really nervous about the keytones as well. The keytone sticks always say negative, but the Nova Max Plus blood test has been back and forth all week between .5 and .6...which supposedly is normal, according to the box. I really hope there's not an infection going on that's getting in the way of the insulin. That would really suck. Before she was diagnosed a few weeks ago, I'd had her to the vet 3 times in a month for an upper respiratory issue...along with the alleged allergy stuff. He'd given her a steroid at the time, no antibiotic. She's just sooooo sad today and it's breaking my heart. She did finally come out from under the bed though to get a drink. I've been making sure she drinks at least every 2 hours all week, which hasn't been a problem. Today is the first day she hasn't eaten much though. I"ll be doing her PMPS soon.
Thanks, Ladies. I sure hope you're both having a better night than we are. But I'm sure tomorrow will be a much better day.
