He's being a grump and s*it about getting his injections now. He squirms, he cries, he basically makes me feel like crap about having to give him the injection. I switch shoulders so that it's not always the same one, and he gets treats while getting his meds, but it's not working like it was before.
I'm not sure where to go with it from here. I can't handle struggling with him every day. Mentally.. it's just draining on me. I know he needs it, but geez... I wish he'd make it easier.
We have a vet visit on Friday afternoon, so we'll have to see how bad his levels are again.
I'm wondering if there is a pill that I can give him (Jen L. mentioned one), but I don't know how well it regulates diabetes. I want him to be well. Not sickly and on death's door. He worries me all the time. He still drinks a ton of water. He still peees lakes in the litter box. His food is SOOOO controlled now... it shouldn't be like this.
UGH.
eta: my depression just makes this all the harder for me to do and so deal with, so if I seem to sound really down, that is one of the reasons.
