| Although no direct experience with DKA, I helped a local owner deal with DKA mainly at home (she's a nurse) and helped her make sure her vet provided proper treatment & support. I learned a lot over that week by posting to the FDMB, synthesizing the responses and referring that to the owner while staying on top of the current situation with her kitty so I could go back an ask for more input as things changed. I also have prior experience with another kitty with hyperthyroid condition and hypothyroid experience with a dog. | ||

| Serendipity suddenly began suffering from severe respiratory distress and died in November 2000, 5 months post dx, of what we think was a blood clot affecting her lungs. Rick and I still miss her very much. I remain active on the fdmb helping other sugarcat parents who need advice. I am happy to lend an ear to anyone who needs it- if you email me, I’ll even send you my phone number to talk in person. When Serendipity was first dx, a friend gave me an acquaintance’s number who had owned a diabetic cat. Speaking with her made me feel so much better about the situation and I would like to do that for others. | ||

| It’s just me and Clara here and knowing someone close by who I may be able to trade “kitty coverage” with when I need to go out of town would be great. Clara is 11 and has done well on Humulin U since her diagnosis. She’s a very special cat and I’m extremely grateful that I’ve been able to manage her care since that ill-fated day in November 1998 when the vet called to tell me it wasn’t a urinary tract infection as I thought might be the reason she was drinking so much water. | ||

| Dr. Sakamoto does not push hometesting, but he supports it! In my case, he depends on it! Because my cat is such a bad patient at the vet, and gets major vet stress, they're unable to do curves on him. So, I do the curves for them. Saves me $$ and saves Dr. Sakamoto's nerves! But as I said - he doesn't push, so if you take your kitty to him, and you want to hometest, you need to let him know and he'll probably give you reasons why you wouldn't want to test at home. But, ultimately, it's up to you and if that is what you decide, he'll work with you. They're great over there! Everybody there is friendly and professional. Dr. Sakamoto and the rest of the staff treat their patients and their owners very well. | ||

| She was dx'd with FD at 7, started on oral (glipizide, actos) w/no success then U, w/very little results. Switched to N with wonderful results. She then started h*neym**n and did so until she diet 10-1-03 of T-cell lymphocytic leukemia. After being dx'd with FD she had problems with diarrhea & fur balls. Best remedy (rec'd by vet) was to mix small amount of canned pumpkin into her food. | ||

| additional comments | ||
| Was up to 3.5 but due to recent illness down to 2. Was in good range at 3.5 but had to start over. Will be SLOWLY working way back up. Not hometesting yet but will be shortly. I work with Dr. Laura Leach at Beverly Oaks and really like her. She's very good with Sake and seems genuinely concerned with his well-being and actually follows-up on her own. My own doctors aren't that considerate. She doesn't seem like a big fan of hometesting but I think that if I show her I just want to use it to better educate myself about Sake's BG cycles she'll come around. They are the cheapest facility in the area, however, Dr. Leach has been very understanding of my financial situation and is working with me to help keep my bills down. They are also a 24-hour clinic so it is extremely convenient for me. | ||

| Jeeves was just diagnosed so we are researching all treatment options. He is 13 years old and has been in great health until now. He has been seen by Dr. Doss a mobile vet because Jeeves can get a bit grumpy at the vet's office but Doss is very expensive and money is all but gone so I am doing my best to find a way to treat Jeeves and keep a roof over our heads. Any and all help is appreciated! | ||

life. he came with his best friend and brother charcoal and the three of
us and my other kitty are trying to get used to each other. taylor and i would love any information that you may have. right now we are trying very hard to relax after our big move from the shelter and to lower the insulin dose which was increased due to stress at the shelter. we are trying to figure out this hometesting thing without turning poor taylor's ears all black and blue! please feel free to contact me. |

| Bandit did suffer from Diabetic Neuropathy for which I gave him Methyl B12 - 3 mg/day. On or about October 1, 2001 Bandit started on his second Honeymoon in as many years. He is testing consistently in the 60 - 90 mg/dl range now and is now getting GTF Chromium (200 mcg) several times a week plus Methyl B12 two times a week for maintenance. His Neuropathy has completely disappeared and he can again jump with the best of them. I have my precious Bandit back and you can have your's back too - if you will listen to what our experts have to say. | ||

| I’ve been thru neuropathy, somogyi and PU/PD with Marissa. Also went thru trying every HUMAN INSULIN with no results. | ||
| additional comments | ||
| If I hadn’t found the FDMB, Marissa wouldn’t be with me today. I found the Board by accident. I was looking on the internet for animal based insulin. I look back now and wonder how much of an accident it REALLY was. | ||

| Uptown Animal Hospital is highly-regarded and up to date on DB. My cat was saved by a referral to an Internal Medicine Specialst, Dr. Susan Yohn, Internal Medicine Referal Center 847.675.5430 in Skokie. This doctor is so unbelievably knowledgeable and compassionate. I wish human doctors were like her. Expensive, but cost-conscious and worth the money. A true angel if you need help. I'm willing to answer all questions posted to me about diabetes. | ||

| Data also has some problems with hind legs being weaker but we're hopeful this will improve as meds and diet improve his condition. Right now he's not sure why he's getting his canned food and tuna and chicken on a regular basis instead of as a treat, but he's not about to argue with me. | ||

| I am new at this, as I learn more, I will update. Nox was diagnosed in November, but I didn't learn enough about this disease until yesterday (May 2, 2002) to realize that I needed a new vet. My fault for not searching the web sooner. If I can find others to talk to, or help someone else get help for their pet, then I am glad I am here. | ||
