yesterday's condo: http://felinediabetes.com/FDMB/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3559
Decided to open new Lantus after discussing with DH last night--since Nelson is back in pink after dropping to high blues last night can't hurt. I already spent the $100 on the new vial so I can't unspend it.
Will also do mini blood curve today. Nelson is due for his follow up visit with the vet this week and I will bring her tight regulation protocol information (the sell a vet stuff). I don't want to do it without some kind of veterinary support. We've done experimental "off label" stuff with Morrison the Uberallergic and since this is just as supported by the literature hopefully she will be at least somewhat supportive.
Disappointed to find that the only feline specialist in town relocated to Reno, NV. We went to her once when we first moved here several years ago but her clinic closed. It was a busy place and her clients loved her. Too bad. She presented grand rounds at the American Association of Feline Practitioners and not to say that means she was a *better* vet than who we have now would be nice to be able to at least be able to consult with one who specializes in feline medicine. The vet school in Baton Rouge is not an option. Been there with a feline cancer case and not impressed. Though there are a couple of feline specialists in BR as well as a couple more in both BR and the Northshore who deal more in holistic nutrition rather than just rx Hills. (One of the BR vets has a link to this website AND to Dr. Lisa's!!!) A fur piece to take Nelson but since we've evacuated the entire hoarde before for a hurricane not impossible.
If today's blood curve indicates no change from old Lantus then will continue with slight dosecrease.
Still doing spot urine checks and either get a lot of spill over or hardly any. So he seems to be hovering right above renal threshhold. I'd like to get him under there and keep him there. Ketones still negative.
If I get a chance to go to Sam's today will also pick up some more strips and .5 unit syringes. The *other* pharmacy that just opened close to my house whose name also begins with "Wal" is not the best. The last 2 times I went in to get u100 syringes the pharm tech didn't know what they were and tried to give me something else.
WCR--still doing much better than before dx. Is starting to associate BG checks with snacks, so is handling those much better and actually comes to me when he sees me getting the testing supplies together. Better have the FF and 9 Lives ready today.
