Can I get some feedback on my spreadsheet please?

Mego's SS

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated and helpful. The readings currently posted are pre-insulin BG results. Mego will be getting his first insulin shot tomorrow. I am trying to be as proactive as I can with recording his progress from the beginning. I've seen other SSs with lab results which I would like to also get up on here as soon as I get copies from the vet tomorrow. How do I add other spreadsheet templates? What kind of info should I include in the comments section. You can see what I've included thus far. Thanks for looking and helping me through this.

If you can PM me, I'll help you add tabs or whatever else you would like on your SS. Just go to the "PM" square under my Gracie's avatar and let me know what else you want besides labs.

The comment section can have just about anything in it that you deem important...things like when you started a new pen, what he ate that day, peeing less, peeing more than usual, was he active and playing, or sleepy and lethargic, how his appetite was did he pick at his food or did he wolf it down. And even the weird things like with my girl I have noticed she tends to run high right before storms, but low during full moons..so I try to note those on her SS (when I remember to) so when I go back and look for patterns I can see if she has a run of high numbers repeatedly and there is always a note on the comments saying something like (Thunderstorm in am) I know that if we have a storm she is more likely than not to run higher.

Thanks Mel. This is why you guys are all so amazing. Mego also freaks out with thunderstorms and I would have never thought to add that on his charts. I swear I'm learning something every second on here.

I've been here almost 3 years...have adopted a couple diabetics as diabetics and have 12 other civies...and I still keep learning things everyday here.

Urine ketone testing is good to note as well as some of the Secondary Monitoring Tools in my signature link, such as the 5 Ps.

[quote="Katie & Mego" I've seen other SSs with lab results which I would like to also get up on here [/quote]My suggestion is to maybe try to get copies a few years back; I was able to get Gobbles' back to 2009, which is where his lab results start on his SS. If you look at Gobbles' Labs on his SS, you'll see I've put "high" values in a bold red font and "low" in a bold blue font; makes it stand out better.
