My 13 LB 11 yr. old chihuahua was diagnosed with diabetes 10 days ago. Her blood glucose level was 411, and she was started on 3 units of Humulin N 100, then switched to 5 units, and later to 3 units of Lantus, and then to Humulin 70/30. She has been experiencing severe panting, increased appetite, and crashes into sleep after injections. Her blood glucose remains around 400, and she has had high triglycerides, high ketones, and intermittent vomiting and diarrhea. Is this panting normal, and will it get under control? Should I be concerned about her condition, and what should I do next?
