Tuxie Care

[lavendertook]

I'm going to attempt to do a blood glucose curve on Tuxie this weekend.

I managed to do a first reading tonight--starting this has been a big fear and procrastination conquered, with more poking of the poor baby. But fear of failing him overcame fear of lancing him and learning a new tech tool. But he hasn't been well and I'm worried about him. We see the vet on Tuesday. I'd like to have a good curve reading (testing his blood glucose levels every couple of hours throughout the day) to bring in with us.

Please send good thoughts our way.

Thank you, hon. It helped. I did it but I don't feel like I'm any better with the lancets and still had to poke him multiple times each reading--bleh--it seemed to bother me more than him, thank goodness. But I got two 12 hour blood glucose curves for the vet to interpret tomorrow and can now take better care of him if he has another seizure, so mission accomplished.
