No bad teeth, cleaned up well so now hoping we go on and see some improvement in her numbers with a nice clean mouth. They skipped her morning shot since the time for it landed during procedures, and she actually came back down while she was there so hopefully she's not crazy high by tonite's shot.

This is the first time she's been given Tramadol for pain, hopefully that doesn't mess with her or her BGs. I don't know why they have to change things :( She is one of our cats that doesn't pill well so I don't know why they gave us that instead of the bupe they used to always give with dentals (they even had all her meds and saw they were all compounded). The first 2 dentals this year got Buprenex, the last two got Tramadol. Why try to pill to a cat if you have a liquid med that works? Oiy!

Well off to a fun evening. Smokey is not a sleepy cat after anesthesia, she is a hopped up crazy girl. Kind of thankful we didn't get the tree up this weekend after all :)
 
Great news the dental went well; you both must be very relieved.

Quite often, BG are lower for a day after the anesthesia... Shadoe had a few cycles of greens and her dose dropped from 14u to 2.75u for awhile.
