So far no other treatments. i am going to get my specialist referal thursday also. so so sorry to here about your pixie. how did she get hypoglycemia? any signs to watch for?
Pixie was very small and a very picky eater and it was a struggle every day to get food down her. She had had couple of episodes of hypoglycemia but with a little nutri-cal she would bounce right back. She had been playing with her litter mates and acting just fine and about an hour later I checked on her and she was very lifeless, I pick her up and gave her Nutri-cal and she passed in my arms. It was devastating.

Is your puppy eating well? When they get hypoglycemic their gums turn white and they act very listless. If your girl is eating well hopefully you won't have to deal with that. I hope the vets can do something for her.
