Finally got a blood ketone meter and Oreo tested at 0.9 today. Very upsetting. Going to check again tomorrow.

That ketone reading of 0.9 is still okay, remember like BG meters, they are meant for humans, so generally speaking, based on scientific studies, the range is higher where the risk of DKA would be of concern. Of course, in the presence of signs of DKA that needs to be factored in.

Thank you! That's reassuring. I tested him today and he was only 0.5 so I feel much better.
