Overwhelmed Ella and April

[Ella Frank]

I am overwhelmed trying to regulate Kitty's blood sugar. We are using ProZinc and feeding fancy feast classic and YA zero carb but so far not able to get levels regulated, either too high or too low, it seems.

I set up a spreadsheet, but am not sure how to access it and I may have made a mistake because the one I am using says it is calibrated for feline meter and we are using a human meter. Anyhow, how does one access the spreadsheet from this site? Thank you. Ella and April (Kitty)

On your spreadsheet, go to the upper right hand corner and choose "Share with anyone with the link". Then get that URL for publishing. Highlight and copy it. Come to the forum, choose your signature and add the URL to the box, using the chain icon in the box above. Then choose Save Changes.

I thought I did that.

I can see your spreadsheet now @Ella Frank ...I couldn't earlier (and the spreadsheet you're using is the correct one if you're using a human meter)

What insulin are you using?

It would be helpful for you to fill out your signature lines so we don't have to keep asking the same questions. Just go to your sign on name (Top right) and click on "Signature"....a new box will pop up for you to put information like:

Your name/cats name, age, sex, date of diagnosis, type of insulin, type of meter, type of food you're feeding, any other health problems?, and maybe a general area where you live.

Then you can put the link to your spreadsheet in there too and "Save" it....it'll show up like my signature does under my comments

Hi Chris,

I do not know where to post the info that you requested. The "signature" page won't accept it. I don't know how to create a profile. To answer your questions:
What insulin are you using? ProZinc

It would be helpful for you to fill out your signature lines so we don't have to keep asking the same questions. Just go to your sign on name (Top right) and click on "Signature"....a new box will pop up for you to put information like:

any other (health) problems: she is/was feral so she is afraid of everyone but me; she had 12 or 13 tooth pulled about 6 months ago

Good job on the spreadsheet! She looks pretty good. I like the 1.25 dose. It gave you some blue midcycles and then a bounce for preshots. I would stick with it a few cycles and see if the preshots lower.

Have you seen our protocol and beginner's guide for ProZinc? It is in blue in my signature. The other thing you might do is look at the ProZinc/PZI forum and check out people's posts and their spreadsheets. You can also post there if you like.
