Hi everyone:
I’d like to introduce myself and my sugar cat Asher. Many of you know us already (uh-oh) :lol: since there seems to have been this giant influx of folks onto this board from PZI recently and not so recently.
We have been on ProZync for a year and a half, and thru many ups and downs I feel we are not getting decent duration and Asher spends too much time above the renal threshold. I think we really gave PZI a good shot. I want better for him so we are going to one of the L’s.
My vet has agreed to switch us to Lantus. He uses entirely PZI at his practice. But he doesn’t know too much about the ins and outs of the L's, so I am sending him a bunch of info by email today, and including some info on Lev too.
All that being said, last night we had a lovely nadir in the low 100s and an amps of 212 this morning. But if you check out Asher’s spreadsheet you will see this may not last. He had a dental in January (second one within a year), with good numbers while he was still on the drugs, then bad numbers after that. We were “regulated" much of last year but are not sure how much since we used a Freestyle meter, and don’t know when the strips were changed, which showed us numbers lower than he actually was. Denise is the one who tipped us off to that.
So it’s been a long road but we must press ahead, and I am hoping you guys will hold our hand and paw to start out. I will keep everyone posted of when we actually change, but wanted to say hi for now, and gather any info you guys might like to add to the mix.
Thanks so much in advance!
