Mine was on Humlin N insulin, which is a human insulin. He was on 17 units twice a day. We went thru the insulin pretty fast. I bought the BD Ultra fine, 31 guage needles and they are about 20.00 a box. Their diet is also important plus giving the medication at the same time each day is important too. Ours lived 2 yrs. after being diagnosed and I would do it all over again for him. Hope its not diabetes but you need to find out asap and get him on medication. Good luck and he's fortunate to have someone to help him and love him. My vet told me not too many people would have done all we did. Some just put them down. I just believe in trying all you can as long as you can. |
