Hi all,

We've been having trouble with our meter today and I've been sick and unable to go get a new one. I tested twice this morning, but the meter screen was acting up. I replaced the battery, no change. I believe the reading was in the 300s because it led with a 3 both times. We called our vet and they recommended a 3u dose of Vetsulin, as they want us on 3u anyway. I wasn't comfortable with that increase without being able to see, but I did give 2.25u.

Tested again tonight, and the PMPS is 186. We've stalled an hour and it's only risen by 11. What should we do?

Edit to mention: I was with Romulus all day after his AM shot because I was worried, but he was the most "normal" (like his pre-diabetes self) I've seen him in months.
 
Sorry no one responded sooner! Looks like he shot up to 320 after and food you gave 2.25U?

Does he get food between shots? It's possible he just kept dropping till the end of the cycle without food.

I know this has been suggested to you before, but you might want to speak to your vet about switching him to Glargine. The generic is much cheaper than Lantus.
