Re: Bowzer the Aussie Cattle Dog
with my jesse i took her for a curve at the vets. brought my meter and they compared with a complete curve with a lab analyzer not another handheld . so we had multiple comparisons against calibrated lab equipment
this gave me a good comparison not perfect . i got to see the accuracy of the meter and also the consistency
for me consistency was the most important if numbers were all over the place than the meter would be difficult to use
i would be a little wary of one comparison reading at an emergency vet especially if it was compared to another handheld that maybe used quite substantially
a few years ago the relion mini i was using at the time compared pretty close to the one touch ultra i was using now these meters have changed a bit since then . we have also seen some comparisons off by quite a bit and others saying they were very close
thats why we say with this disease it is very dog individualistic . you cant fully trust what works for one dog will work for another .
glad they figured it was a UTI very common with a diabetic dogs and really not unusual to see it in non diabetic dogs or humanes . my mom gets them from time to time and she is not diabetic
