Zooz is currently controlled (we don't say regulated) with 3u b.i.d. of NPH. He is on a high protein/low carb diet. (Eating Fancy Feast low carb varieties and Purnia DM Dry.) The DM Dry has been a miracle as far as flattening out a somewhat steep curve. Zooz' numbers are now fantastic ***anti-jinx***! He has pre-shots in the mid-200's and peaks anywhere from the high 80's to the low 100's. His coat is beautiful and the litter box is no longer a swamp!

Josie was just short of 9 years old when she was originally diagnosed in MA. We moved back to KY 05/02, and she was finally 'regulated' around 09/02. Unfortunately, she has gained back all of the weight she had lost and then some. I am very interested in getting her weight down and eventually lowering her dosage. We haven't started hometesting yet, but hope to begin soon.

additional comments
My little guy was 12 when he was diagnosed with diabetes and FIV pos. I did not know all his life he was FIV pos....it came as a shock but he did well. Between the diabetes, FIV, asthma and heart murmur he lived for 14 years.  He was a fighter..we were very close.....he let me do anything but not the vets..so I did all his curves and such....His asthma was well controlled the last year and half of his life....he was off the prednisone for over a year.....he had so many complications and yet we dealt with it all....it is work but so worth it.  I would gladly do it all over again to help him.......he had a great loving personality.......I had him on some supplements which I am sure helped him.
