Would some one please look at BeeGee's ss and tell me how better I could manager her. A few drops of insulin seems to drop her BG levels rapidly. She is so close to control I would appreciate any help to achieve that goal. Got this far with your help hope we can go all the way!
 
I can hardly see where you could do anything that you aren't already.

If you were to drop your no shoot number by 10 points, you would have to be able to monitor and get a couple midcycles readings every cycle. With the tests you have, I don't see changing anything. Unless she goes OJT you are doing the minimum already.

You have no idea how many of us would love to be in your shoes! :-D
 
I think you are doing great with her, Pat. The only thing I know to do is be patient :mrgreen: , feed small meals, give tiny doses when she reaches a number when you can shoot. The hope (and what usually happens) is that she needs less and less insulin and she has a longer and longer periods when she stabilizes herself. For some cats, it is a pretty fast process. For others it takes weeks and weeks.
 
Thank you so much for your help and support, I don't know how folks deal with this disease alone.
 
Hon! You have done a fantastic job. Hang in there, at the rate she's going you'll be having an OTJ party before long! :-D
 
Hey Pat,

Looks like BeeGee is doing well. I snuck a peek on the ss. .5 on a yellows seems to give you a pretty low nadir. Have you considered buying some U100 needles and dosing smaller than .5? (you'd need to use the conversion chart). It would let you dose lower and maybe stop any bouncing. It's looks like OTJ is close! (anti jinx)
