Munchkin's Reagan
Active Member
Hello Everyone,
I had joined FDMB a year ago when our cat, Munchkin was dx originally. Through a big move and hectic schedules I didn't get to come around often and Munchkin actually went into remission. We almost made it a year since dx, 5 days off, but she ended up at the vet for blood in her stools, where we discovered colitis and her diabetes is back. (Apparently I've been relying on a meter/test strips that weren't giving me anywhere near accurate numbers. Her last visit to the had been about 4 months prior for a diabetes check.)
Anyway, I realize I've forgotten most of what I needed to know, so I thought it best to come back and re-educate myself. I've restarted her spreadsheet, (hid last year because it really wasn't kept well) we've been doing a full curve today, which is also her first day back on Lantus, 1 unit. She's feed twice a day 9am/9pm, but I'm wondering if she needs more food? She is getting 1 t of Dry DM with 1/2 can wet at every meal (Friskies Pate or Best Feline Friend)- I am going to completely remove the DM, but after we get a good idea of how the insulin is working. I apologize if I'm a little long winded, or unclear, I'm still trying to readjust to everything.
Here's the link to her SS, until I can remember how to add it to a signature.
