Hello everyone, I am new to this site. I am looking for any feedback and or suggestions.
Our dog Nala is a 8 year old mixed breed. She was diagnosed with diabetes in August 2014, taking 8 units of caninsulin twice daily. We have not been able to get her sugars regulated since the diagnosis, as she always seems to have a UTI throwing her sugars out of whack. She had bladder stones removed in 2012 and since then she is prone to UTI's.
Within the last 5 months we have seen weeks of great improvement and then other weeks where she is doing terrible, resulting in weekly vet visits for glucose readings, new antibiotics, etc. Since the beginning of the new year she has gone completely blind and have been on 2 weeks of antibiotics.
Are there any other dogs going through this type if scenario? We are desperately looking for some solutions/support to help us get through this never ending cycle.
Thanks, Sara
