Aw, poor little girl.

Nice, detailed notes on the spreadsheet! Could you also add in ketone test results somewhere (I couldn't find them if they're there)? Especially when she's running high, you'll want to be vigilant on that. I agree with Marje, it may be time to tweak the dose back up a bit. How does your schedule look these days in terms of being able to monitor?

I read your message on your last thread (http://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/...5-and-a-question-about-dosing-tonight.188659/) about people not understanding caring for a diabetic kitty. :mad: :mad: :mad:. Sometimes I really don't understand people, or think I want to.

haha thank you for reading! It was a bit of a well needed rant. Im glad there is so much support here though.

In terms of monitoring.. I'm not picking up a ton of shifts.. I work an evening shift 3-11 on the 31st and then another evening on the 4th.

Ill add in the ketone tests from now on as well. I added yesterdays as well.

Let's see how the rest of the day goes, and also see what other folks have to say before making the call on the dose. At the moment I'm leaning that way, as this is the 4th cycle on 0.1 and she hasn't gotten back to green. There's that pesky 61 on 0.1 on 12/26, but that might have been influenced by the last gasp of the 0.25U depot.

I'm glad you'll have the opportunity to monitor over the next several days, it makes it easier to contemplate an increase if Ballonee needs it!
 
I also read your post and it’s very true. We lost some friends as well but Gracie was always our number one priority and it let me know who really our friends really were. The ones that were often brought us meals, kept me company when Mike was gone by coming over and watching movies even though I had to get up numerous times and test and feed Gracie.

I agree with Nan that we should see if she comes back down. She’s a little flatter now which is good. But we certainly don’t want to leave her at numbers higher than she needs to be at.

Thanks for starting a new condo.
 
she was 500 tonight.. I think that's the highest I've ever seen her. Gave her 0.25 units. I hope that was the right move. I just felt that the 0.1 units was poorly regulating her. Ill watch closely.
 
Also when her blood sugar is increased she gets soo hyper.. She was almost impossible to catch to do our PM routine :/
