I feel your frustration in waiting for lab results. It is such a stressful time not knowing what is wrong and not being able to try to fix it... YET. Soon you will have answers and can take action.
BTW my neighbors cat also had diabetes, and with proper managing of glucose lived to be 17.
Diabetes is not a death sentence, but is a call for proper management to minimize damage and have as long of a life as possible. I am reading tons of info online, and am dedicated to proper management for my baby.
I've given Meika her insulin shots for 2 days, and it is going just fine. She doesn't even notice when I give the shots.
She lost 1 lb. in just 5 days.... but not to worry, she is a chunky 15 pounder who loves to eat. (she is 3/4 Yorkie and 1/4 Maltese).
I don't know how old Prince is, but apparently he has other health issues. Good luck with all of those, you will be in my thoughts and prayers. |
