This has been the worst week. First, my 16-year-old non-sugar kitty, Keos, was diagnosed with lymphoma and only given a couple months and now Oreo has hyperthyroidism in addition to diabetes. He's being started on 2.5 mg of methimazole twice a day. I'm so sad right now.
Hyperthyroidism can increase insulin resistance. Treating the hyperT may help get him more regulated. So do keep a close eye on his numbers, such as what you saw today.How old is Oreo?
Sorry to hear about Keos.![]()
If it's the groups.io group on feline hyperT, that is an excellent group. Not uncommon for vets to prescribe too high to start. I hope the vet responds soon. Any chance you can cut the pills in half with a pill splitter?
