Hello,
I have a newly diagnosed cat and am having lots of issues with my vet about my part in the management of her diabetes. My vet discourages home testing, but will reluctantly agree only to my using an animal monitor. She will not allow U-100 syringes (my cat is on Pro Zinc U-40 syringes). She will "fire" me if I start changing dosage on my own based on home testing results. Bottom line: what are other's experiences with vets? Have many of you had to shop around for a vet who is willing to involve you in the process?
Thanks!
Sandy
