Subject: Re: BG is dropping

Butch (5 y/o male MF) had a BG reading of 55 on 1/12. He was put on .50 ml
PediaPred twice a day. On 2/9 his BG was 50 after a 4 hour fast. His dosage
has been increased to .75 twice a day and he goes back on 2/23.

I'm concerned about why it's still dropping and what the next step should be.
Maggie's BG didn't get below 75 we remove a node when we did her EG biopsy and
she is doing very well off the pred.

Can he live a happy bouncy ferrety life on the PrediaPred or should we do the
surgery. The question isn't based on finances (that's what credit cards are
for) I just want what is best for my little man.

Thank you!
Connie, Butch (I'm sleepy Mommy), Maggie (I did it and I feel great) and CB
(huh?)
