Now that I am taking care of Jonathon, I have been reading a lot about diabetes. This is a very complex disease. He also has FIV but I don't think that has much to do with the diabetes. His blood sugar is down in the low 100's so I called the vet and asked what I should do. I am now giving him 2 units of insulin instead of 3.
I feel anxious treating him sometimes because I realize the seriousness of this disease. I am trying to find the answer to this question: How and why does the blood glucose change? Why is it 300 then lowers to 200? How does it increase or decrease? What influences it? Just food? I have looked online and I cannot find this answer. I would like to see some kind of animation or picture showing me how it changes. I feel that if I learn all about this, I can help him better.
If you know of some sites that will help me with this answer specifically or if you take care of a diabetic cat yourself, please let me know. I would really appreciate it!
