Oscar was diagnosed with diabetes on July 27, 2005. He was prescribed Lantus at 2U bid and was given Purina DM dry and canned food. We were told that Oscar was too high-stress at the vet to do curves, so we would only be doing fructosamine tests every 3 weeks. I took all of this in, felt very overwhelmed, but realized it was something we could deal with.

abstract	Oscar was diagnosed with diabetes on July 27, 2005. He was prescribed Lantus at 2U bid and was given Purina DM dry and canned food. We were told that Oscar was too high-stress at the vet to do curves, so we would only be doing fructosamine tests every 3 weeks. I took all of this in, felt very overwhelmed, but realized it was something we could deal with. We gave the 2U bid for 3 weeks, then took Oscar in for a fructosamine test. We were told that he was still in the poorly regulated range and to increase his dose to 3U bid. We kept him at this dose for another 3 weeks, then had another fructosamine test done. He was still in the higher range, but slightly lower. The vet told me to increase Oscar's dose to 4U bid. At this time, I was starting to read articles on felinediabetes.com and had discovered FDMB. I was starting to be aware of better treatment options, but was still learning. I asked our vet about hometesting and he discouraged it. I also asked about different food, as I had heard about Wellness and Fancy Feast being fed for diabetes. Oscar was throwing up the DM canned a lot and I had already cut out the dry food thanks to FDMB. The vet was okay with a switch to Wellness.
