    Re: Scooter

    He's sleeping a lot. Seems a bit lethargic. Meter seems fine. I tested my blood and my husbands and they were both normal. I've been researching insulinomas which are tumors in the pancreas. They cause hypoglycemia. Calling the vet in the morning.

      Re: Scooter

      Organs do have influence on the bolus and basal production of sugar . If they are compromised it can affect the sugar the body needs and the diarrhea maybe point to that

      Amys maggie would go through this on occassion i think it occurred with a pancreatic attack so something to check when you go to the vets . I think there are specific tests for pancreatitis

        So we didn't give Scooter any insulin last night. At 10pm he was 57! This morning I tested him before he ate his breakfast at 5:30am and he was 185. I waited until I got back from work at 8:30am to give him his insulin just to be sure he was ok. Tested him before his shot and he was 395! I guess the crisis has been averted Tested him again @ 12:30pm and he was 127. I lowered his insulin to 10 units from 13. We'll see how that goes Guessing it was the diarrhea causing the low numbers. I just can't believe with all the sugar he had that his BG was still so low. He is feeling much better today. One day at a time with this little guy! Thanks for the advice. Blessing to all and to all of your fur babies!!

          It has been an amazing 12 and a half years. Our hearts are broken today as Scooter took his last breath in this world and his next one in heaven. I always said he never met a stranger now today what an adventure he's having meeting more new friends. We'll miss miss you more than words can express Scoot. RIP little buddy. See you at the bridge one day

                    Aw, Janice, I'm so very sorry to learn of Scooter's passing.

                    I looked back through your thread and was struck by your quiet but unwavering determination in making sure Scooter always had the very best. You guys had some challenges along the way... sending Scooter a kiss and a thunderstorm skyward and a hug to you,
