Hi Dr Murray

I've started Mason on pred to stabilise his sugars for surgery and at the
same time I've started weaning him off the Enacard and he is doing really
well. I haven't seen him so active in a long time... I'd been wondering
whether he did have a heart problem after all but he seems fine now...
That's why I thought maybe the Enacard made him feel better somehow when he
had low sugars... And when I took him off the Enacard, he felt worse...
