My dog, Brownie, was recently diagnosed with diabetes and started on 8mg of Vetsulin insulin twice per day. Despite this, her blood sugar levels remain over 600, and she has been experiencing symptoms such as panting, weakness, and bloodshot eyes. I am concerned about her current condition and whether I should adjust her insulin dosage. Additionally, Brownie suddenly went partially deaf two days after starting insulin. What should I do to manage her diabetes and address her other symptoms?
