Hi there I'm sorry I don't know anything about Lyrica ,especially used for arthritis
I will tag a few other members for you
Are you home testing your cat ?
What insulin are you using and how many units are you giving
What does your vet access her for once a month that she has to be sedated for
I'm going to give you a link to fill out ,it's information we need about Coco
Take a look at mine
Here is a link helping us to help you link. If you noticed, our members have some basic information about their cat's in their signature. This helps us to not pester you by asking the same questions (your cat's name, insulin type, date of diagnosis, etc.) repeatedly. We also have a link to our spreadsheet in our signature. We are very numbers driven. The spreadsheet is a record of your cat's progress. By linking it in your signature, we can follow along and provide feedback should you need the help.
If you need help setting up the spreadsheet just ask we have a member who will do it for you
From what I have read here on our forum most members give adequan or solencia injections for arthritis. They have to be given by their vets
 
HI everyone, I am brand new here. My baby Coco has just been diagnosed with Diabetes and we have started with insulin shots twice a day at the lowest level. My cat has been on Lyrica for her arthritis for months, I'm not sure when to give her the lyrica, does it affect the insulin shots at all? I gave her the insulin shot about 45 minutes ago. I would appreciate any advice. She is a very very aggressive and grumpy cat so I didn't think I could actually get the shots done but it has been better than expected. Sadly she has to be sedated to be assessed and the vet wants to assess her at least once a month under sedation which I am so scared about. She also has low grade chronic pancreatitis
