First to Sukie: thank you for the correction regarding the measurement. I
noticed it later. I really should read the whole thread before posting.
Second: For Lady Ayeka our vet drew the magic line, the point at which he
would do surgery, at 0.1ml pediapred (1mg/ml). He only holds off on surgery
while the dosage is truly miniscule, so unless Minnie's pred is at a very
low concentration indeed we'd be looking at surgery.
I don't know why so little pred works for Ayeka. He dosage has been 0.03ml,
0.04ml, and now 0.08ml over the past two years. If we stop or drop the
dosage her blood glucose plummets. Just a tiny amount brings her blood
glucose up to anywhere between 75 and 105. Any thoughts?
