Newly diagnosed with diabetes
My 8 year old Cairn Terrier has been diagnosed with diabetes. I'm giving her 2
insulin shots daily (of varying amounts of Humalin) based on urine readings. She's showing no ketones. I was wondering whether anyone knew about a diabetes newsgroup or board where I might be able to post questions and correspond with others who are dealing with the same issue Everything I've looked up so far discusses doing blood tests rather than the urine tests. Don't get me wrong, doing urines is far easier (although not as accurate), but maybe our vet recommeded it because the diabetes isn't that severe, or because she knew how difficult getting bloods from this particular dog would be. Any help appreciated! |
