Re: Kitty 6/16 +3 +6
Kim,
I thought I would move this over to your condo .... (see I can do Lantus

Payne is good but she is in rebound today, all the insulin I need to throw at her to counter the ketones. ohmygod_smile I haven't seen a 400 in a long time, it feels bad. The vets don't know .... my suspicion after testing, testing, testing EVERYTHING! is that she can't do carb, grains or starches. We had added back some med carb and I suspect that got her pancreatitis going, which I believe makes the ketones.?? At least I have a theory. :lol:
I see Kitty is good today but you can't worry over every number, or you will need me to send you some great Napa wine

There are sooo many variables, most we don't know .... sorta like flying by the seat of our pants. I asked a mucky-muck vet specialist who was looking at Payne during her 2nd. DKA (at UC Davis) and he was very nice but he missed the basic problem, away from ER she wasn't getting enough insulin. Now this is DKA basic 101 .... not enough insulin but he missed it, plus some other stuff.
We all have very complex kitties ..... they are all puzzles, some look the same, some don't but they are all puzzles to be solved. How we solve them .... that is the mystery. You look over and say in your puzzle if you put that piece there, it will fit together better. I look at someone else and say my puzzle goes together like this, maybe yours will to, but it is all??? so we test and test and try to fit the puzzles together but the puzzle keeps changing. We do the best we can .....
I will go back to the big puzzle the stock market, I still have 90 min. of work left .... Nancy
