Hey everyone,
I've also posted on the prozinc forum, but wanted to try to get a wider audience.

I went to do a glucose test and it just appears that the insulin has stopped working?
A few weeks ago they increased his dose from 2 to 3 units twice a day, and then his BG started going haywire. We made the decision to lower it to 2/2 for a week and then do a glucose curve, with the intention of possibly increasing it using the protocol, by either .25 or .5 units....
But today was just weird! As was yesterday!
I can't make any sense of this information.

Also ---- for food, we are giving him 1/4 of his daily calories in dry kibble in the morning before his AM shot and 1/4 of his calories in dry kibble at his PM shot. We are having a difficult time getting him to eat any wet food, so we are trying to ensure he is getting a minimum amount of gaurenteed calories. We know it isn't optimum for a diabetic cat, so we have some wet food samples being sent to us.

Any insight?
Jess
 
The only thing abnormal is the high creatinine, that typically indicates kidney insufficiency. The HCT is a little lo with typically havens with kidney insufficiency. However, phosphorous is good.
