Re: new diabetes diagnosis - Bammie the Catahoula
I went looking for your earlier thread, to remind myself about Bammie. (Just posted to your newer thread, about sores, on the back of a hind leg, above the paw.)
Bammie was diagnosed back in April, and at that time, was put on a low dose of insulin - 8 units of Humulin-N (I believe), and he weighed 87 pounds at the time.
Is his weight pretty stable?
I was wondering, too, since that was back in April 2011, if your vet had done any more blood glucose curves on Bammie, or whether perhaps you are doing them occasionally?
It would be wonderful if you could update us in general on how Bammie is doing!
I'm trusting the sores can be managed and healed.
Hugs, licks and wags,
