Hi gang ... did someone get the license plate of that tow truck that hauled all my free time away? UGH... Winters used to be my "down" time... not so much.
Anyway, didn't want to become persona non grata for never showing my face here in case I'm desperately begging for your help again one of these days (hopefully not) and also wanted to make sure everyone was OK so grabbing a few minutes on a late night at work and checking in.
Robbie is now on 4 units (down from almost 6) 2x per day. Numbers at amps are higher still (not sure what that's about) but generally in the low 300's (although yesterday it was 368 and pmps is generally between 260 and 290. I continue to just shoot 4 - when I tried going down to 3 (3.5ish first than 3) on the amps shot when I got to the true 3 he was over 400 that pmps - kind of not sure what this all means and REALLY need to find time to do a curve both am and pm - when I do I would LOVE feed back and promise to at least post if not update that ever elusive SS of ours... He's doing pretty well - has some real off days that I'm not sure have anything to do with diabetes - he seems forgetful and confused sometimes - odd- but others he's spot on. He has periods where he drinks LOTS of water and pees plate sized clumps but mostly it's high moderate water intake and pee clumpage. He's taken to finding a cat nip mouse EVERY night after dinner and having a REAL good time with it (this could explain the forgetfulness I'm thinking LOL although that started before the cat nip spree did). He also seems to have very, very minor/mild tremors every now and than - just sort of notice his shoulder area twitch for a second - DAvid swears it's in my mind... I don't know. I did mention it to the vet last time he was there and he checked him out looked at his most recent blood work and said to "watch him" and if it seemed to be consistent or more pronounced to bring him right back in but than I didn't see it for weeks so... not sure.
Happy New Year to you all and hope everyone and their fur kids are doing very very well. Thank you.
