TWO MESSAGES COMBINED HERE SO SOME REPETITION - Natalie
_________
my min-pin who is 10 yrs old has been on vetsulin and now we are trying the humlin again. He's on a home cooked diet of vension and green veggies. I am having a hard time with his levels, this am 3 hours after his shot and feeding his reading was 198. blood sugar continued to get higher during today with last reading 9 hours post am shot at 498.
he is on 6 units, the vet started him at 2 last week and i have slowly gone up. he takes 2 shots per day. my question is would it help or hurt to give a mid-day snack? sorry for this being so long we are new to this form. please help us if you can.
thanks

just changed over to humlin, vet said to start with 2 units after being on 5 units of vetsulin. having a hard time getting getting below 300. have increased to 6 units by now. 3 hour post injection and food this am was 198, but by 9 hours post injection 485! not sure what to do and neither does the vet. He stated that they were having a horrible time with the other dogs trying to regulate. My question is ... should he have a snack during the day?
I would truely appreciate any help you can give.
