Vibes for Keeda.

If I've learned anything from my geriatric dogs, when both of them showed up anemic on bloodwork we saw no signs of infection, but treated with abx. Neither was anemic on later bloodwork. Could certainly have been coincidence, but I always like to mention it.

I hope figuring out her insulin regimen goes smoothly. Keeda's lucky to have you.

It will be hard managing the diabetes with my work hours but we'll figure it out. At the end of the day she has an illness that can be managed. So that is huge... It could have been so much worse.

I am sure you will do well getting her into a routine for her treatment. No disease is fun, but it must be a relief that she has something that can be managed. Could her anemia be from not eating enough recently?

Yeah, I am happy that her disease can be managed. That is huge, but now I need to find more out about how it works in dogs.

I think I will make a dog diabetes thread. I have a ton of questions and would like links to resources.

The good news is that she is a different dog than the one I dropped off this morning. She came waltzing out of the back completely alert, energetic, and happy and the ONLY change to her was today's insulin. I'm hoping she starts putting the weight she lost this week back quickly. Then when you look at her you prob wouldn't know there's a problem.

Yay! so glad it's something manageable!

Thank You. I'm happy it is something that can be managed too.

I just feel so overwhelmed right now... my head is spinning at 100mph it seems. /sigh.

Glad to hear she is okay . Very glad. Sorry you are having a rough week, hope things get better for you!
