No I really have not ever done a curve...I do know, even without an episode the vet has checked it, and it's low...but not dangerous...like in the 70's.
At one time she did want to do "Insulin levels" on him...amazingly enough he fasted all night and the entire next day...at the vets...and his sugar never dropped below 60. But he was in a kennel all day. She said that it had to be low to get proper readings...I don't know why. She seems to think that he produces too much insulin...where I tend to believe he uses too much glucose.
At the very beginning of his problems, I too wondered which came first the low blood sugar or the seizure...but after witnessing his episodes, I do not think they are epileptic in nature and neither does the vets. But he has not seen a Neurologist. Do they do EEG's/brain waves on dogs? Yes, we've talked about trying anti-seizure meds on him...but they don't think it will help.
I guess the next step will have to be a nutritionist and a neurologist...hopefully I'll be able to find one around here...and maybe come to a conclusion. Thanks for all the info!!!
