Merry Christmas!

Well, now I REALLY feel bad....

Out of desperation, I gave Scruffy a zenequin (left over from the last ear infection a couple months ago) two days ago. He's now had three of them. And, if you look at his numbers, it's abundantly clear that he's had all these awful numbers because he's got some sort of infection going on. I did poke around in his mouth the day I started the zenequin, and he has a couple of red spots. (He just had a dental last spring, though.) Could it be the mouth stuff plus herpes has done this to him?

I have been trying to avoid having to take him to the vet because he turns into such a maniac there. And then I have weeks of his hiding every time he hears the car keys jingle. I really don't know what to do about the situation. It seems wrong to make him go for appointments with someone he has such a definite negative response to. He was always the world's most laid-back cat, and now.... He's touchy with the holistic vet, and the ophthalmologist, and the dermatologist, but nothing like the hissing, spitting, jumping, clawing and actual pooping that Dr. G. gets. I have sort of associated the start of all this commotion with the last dental, but I don't know if that's accurate or not. I do know Scruffy has quite a long memory for slights and upsets.

I guess he'll have to go and see what the vet thinks about what's going on. And Jojo has really been encouraging me to have another pancreatitis test done. The last one was borderline. He's throwing up a lot lately, but it doesn't seem much different than any of the other periods that he did that. I think that maybe the zenequin has loosened some stuff in his sinuses, too - he's really snorting up a storm in the last couple days. And sneezing. Poor cat. It's really crappy to have all this stuff wrong with him. It's encouraging to see that Levemir still is willing to make a go of it, at least. I really want to get back on the right track with the insulin.

The return of herpes

While I can't blame all of the horrible December numbers on herpes, I do think that's at least part of the problem. Within the last couple days, the snorting has started. And like everything else that goes wrong, this is my fault, too - I bought a huge bottle of the Lysine I had been using for years, and then noticed that it now contains propylene glycol, which is to be avoided. So, I ordered on line - buy one bottle of lysine, get two free. Only, when the bazillion pills came, they were coated with such a hard covering that my pill chopper could hardly get through them. And, since I have to be able to chop up the mucho expensive Keppra pills for Milk, I made a less-than-executive decision to stop chopping up Lysine for a while. So, Scruffy hasn't had his lysine for probably more than a month, and here I am, having ruined his good numbers and made him miserable besides. I started the lysine again last week, but who knows how long it's going to take to do any good. The moral of the story is, nothing I do ever turns out right.

Aside from the above stupidity, this last two weeks has been horrible for him. I've checked his urine half a dozen times, and it's always been ketone negative (thank God), and 1/2% glucose. The average on his meter is up more than 150 points for the 7 and 14 day averages from what it had been. Every time I turn around, he's in the 400's. He's dropped to sub-40 numbers on both .5 and .75 units. I don't know where to go with all this. I have been debating taking him to the vet, but that's such an ordeal for all of us that I've been putting it off. This is so discouraging; I'd actually gotten used to those wonderful numbers from last month - not so obsessive about testing, and not worrying about when I had to go out, and sleeping....... Not no more.

Poor Scruffy. I've always told him that he'd have been so much smarter to have wandered into someone else's sister's garage.

I've totally lost control.

Of Levemir and Scruffy's diabetes. And it was going SO well.... I've got myself all worked up about Milkshake, and now I have to be gone most of tomorrow. Poor Scruffy. Sitting in the 300's for a day and a half so far. I did get a new cartridge out today, although I feel an affection for the old one - it was such a good worker! I don't know what went wrong or why, and I don't have the energy right now to figure it out. I'm going to be optimistic and hope that Levemir will be the useful, cooperative insulin it's been for the last month when I finally get myself together.

I can't believe it, but.....

this is still going well! Amazing doesn't describe it. And for the last three or four days, he's been getting only .5 units BID.

According to my meter, here are his average glucose levels:

47 tests^^^^^^^7 days^^^^^ 129
96 tests^^^^^^ 14 days^^^^^ 141
215 tests^^^^^ 30 days^^^^^ 160
440 tests^^^^^ 60 days^^^^^ 191
658 tests^^^^^ 90 days^^^^^ 198

Aside from the incredibly improved numbers, I am filled with appreciation for the wonder of my tubby little cat who allowed me to poke that many holes in his torn ears. What a good and patient boy he is.

Why, oh, why did I let that Levemir sit in the fridge for 9 months before I got the courage to use it?

a little experimentation

Well, it's been a while since that 314 appeared. And, to my surprise, things have still been pretty good, numbers-wise. It appears that 1.0 units drops him a smidge too low for my comfort zone most of the time these days, but .75 units, which I keep pathetically trying, is not enough. Anyway, with the exception of one or two days in the last week or so, this has been the best period of Scruffy's life as a diabetic, in terms of glucose levels. And it's still amazing....

Rats. I knew it.

+11.5 184 .75uLevemir
+1.5 314

Crap. Crap. Crap. Well, I can stop worrying about a new cartridge, anyway.

Don't want to jinx what's been going on....

but there's something happening the last five days. (FIVE days, can you imagine?) I have no explanation for any of it. My mystification came to a head last night when, at +21, he finally got up to 100 again. He hadn't had any insulin the whole day. My previous experience had usually been that, the longer the duration, the less likely it was that the standard amount of insulin would be able to keep his level down. So, although I considered waiting for him to get another 20 points or so higher, I shot him. Thank goodness I didn't decide to increase the 1u that he has been getting; I was up most of the night as it was...... It appears that, even if he's going up when I test him, there's a certain - unspecified, of course - point where it does NOT take four hours for the Levemir to kick in. Last night was the second time in the last few days when he had dropped significantly by +2. (I do get really tired of all the guessing.) I have no idea how to decide when that might happen, or even if it will. He's not particularly interested in eating now, either, which makes me more nervous about the numbers he's been getting; I do NOT want to get stuck with him dropping and refusing to eat at the same time. Even his favorite Sliced Beef with Gravy Fancy Feast didn't get eaten last night. I did smear a fingertip full of Laxatone on his gums around the +2.5 feeding, just in case. I don't know where we're going with this, or why. And if it's the insulin getting stronger because it's nearing the end of the cartridge, what does that mean? What'll happen when I start a new cartridge? What was that old song - "How Do You Keep 'Em Down On The Farm, Now That They've Seen Paree"? God, I'm SO old.

Assuming that there's some obscure reason for the sudden appearance of good numbers, and adding in how things usually go, I am not expecting that this can last. But wouldn't it be nice?

More chiropractic.

Aside from the very lengthy trip to and from, these appointments only take five or ten minutes. And they're not particularly unpleasant for Scruffy, either. Today, he only hissed after I put him back into the carrier. Slid his Kitty Pi out of the carrier with him in it, the vet treated him sitting in the Pi in the meatloaf position, and then I slid him back into the carrier. It was sooo easy; he didn't even have to stand up for the entire appointment, and he never had to make eye contact with the vet, either.

There were 6 vertebrae out of whack the first appointment, but only two or three this time. He doesn't have to go back for 8 weeks. I haven't gotten to see him maneuvering since we got home to see if there appears to be a difference or not.
