So I just bought some ketone strips, since we're coming out of DKA I thought it would be good to track this, and her pee registered as "small" which is more than trace but less than medium. Since we're coming out of DKA is it okay to assume that it's the remnants of dka working out of her system? She seems much better than she was before, but I see in the sticky above that you should rush to a vet if you get anything over trace, so I'm a little confused.
 
Most people think anything more than a trace requires a vet visit. Difficult weekend to do that. Let me see if Lu or nancy is around. They have the most experience with ketones. Also post on Health to get more responses. Board is quiet tonight.
 
yeah, my regular vet is closed until tuesday and i did not like the vet at the ER at all. I'll re-post over in health.
