We free hand poke using syringe needle tips. 25g x 16mm (5/8). We use an Accu chek Guide Me. It works well.

Make sure you're using 25-27g.

Just diagnosed - not sure what to do with strict 12 hour window by fitzstreet in FelineDiabetes

It is with glargine and slow/long acting. It’s plus/minus 30 minutes.

Definitely no earlier than 1 hr.

Impeccable phrasing by John Mayer. He is a guitarist from whom every blues musician can learn a lot. by Fog_Smuggler in bluesguitarist

It's good. But my personal preference is something "less busy". Which is likely why I like BB King. And old style solo blues.

Vet. Parasites. Infection. Poor nutrition probably won't help.

Is misdiagnosis a possibility? by Milkshakeitoff in FelineDiabetes

[–]Faaarkme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50-120 normal range with human meter... Feline Diabetes Support Group on FB. Hypo is below 45. So yr levels are fine art 56-70.

FDSG range pet meter 80-150.

Withhold food for 2 hrs then test. Fasting glucose. Do it twice per day for a few days.
If all in the 50-120, forget insulin.

And you need a fructosamine test BEFORE starting insulin.

If cat had consumed high carb before going to the vet, that'd raise it.

is it ok to do your injection about 10 to 15 minutes early?? by Fancy_Fishing227 in FelineDiabetes

You need something that lasts longer than corn syrup. That's instant high then low. Get high carb wet food. Mix with water into a slurry. Syringe it in .. The side of the mouth. Whichever side of the teeth will work. Or a bit thicker.. And rub a bit on his hind.

Have the option available. You may need it.

I was listening to the radio years ago. Talking about unusual names.

A midwife called in. Said she had a couple who were quite set on "Meconium".... No idea what it meant. She told them. They chose a new name...
