Update is that Saskia is doing well and taking to her treatment very well ( the injections don't bother her at all ) we are so pleased with her :)

Her next bloods are being done next Thursday before we go on holiday on the Friday :)

Saskia vet update:

 

Just got back and the vet is very happy with her :) she as lost nearly a kilo in weight and her sugar levels are down to 14.6 which is better than he expected in such a short time.

She will never get down to the normal 5-8 level but under 15 in 3 weeks is very good :)

As some might already know Saskia as arthritis and he as said she needs to be on metacam now as well, she has had it before and does very well off it but now its gotta be all the time.

 

All in all we are very happy with how her treatment is going so I thought I'd share with you lot :)
