As I was sifting through my research today, I discovered a HUGE mistake! Ness is prescribed U40 insulin but the vet was calling in U100 needles to my pharmacy without ever mentioning a conversion factor! He is actually getting 3.2 u NOT 8 twice a day. The vet also advised me to take away his dry food WITHOUT stopping or reducing insulin. I have lost all faith in my vet and I can't get in to see a new vet until Saturday! We don't even have an emergency vet. Needless to say his bg dropped to 50. I followed the hypo instructions and gave him a can of wet food with honey mixed in and some dry food. 15 minutes later I retested and he was at 90 and an hour later 148 I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NEXT SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!!
