I have an 8yr old collie Tess, who has been diabetic for nearly two yearsShe is on 5.5 units insulin twice a day. She has gotten close to being stable a couple of times, but now she is way out and I don't think the vet knows what to do! She starts the day off at 14, has her food and insulin and walk, approx8, then rises as the day goes on up to nearly 30.  6 months ago when we were doing a curve it ran high so insulin was altered up to 6 then she had a hypo. Put it back to 3 - went high. Gradually got it back up to 5 and stayed reasonable at approx 10 where we left it. Had no problems with her, nothing noticeable until this past  month when the vet suggested a check and we are all up in the air again.  She has gone blind in he last year. But other than that she is In great form, enjoys her walks (off lead) has rough and tumble games with our other dogs, even chases a ball about (she hears the ball!).  She loves to be loved.  Needs to be under a hand most of the time - have to watch the cups of tea! Anyone else have similar problems? Any ideas, any answers.  Both my husband and I are diabetics so have understood what she's been going through.Sent from the <a href="http://www.diabetes.co.uk/app/?utm_source=sig&utm_medium=txt&utm_campaign=appsig" target="_blank">Diabetes Forum App</a></blockquote>
