I don't think you need to worry too much, definately speak to your vet, but I think it depends mostly on what time you work. It is not impertinant to give Cybill the insulin as soon as you get up, so best to arrange it around your schedule, as long as you are giving it with mealtime. It is not too big a deal if your insulin doses and more than 12 hours apart. My schedule is very random, because my mom's work schedule varies anytime between breakfast at 4am and supper after midnight and sometimes I miss a dose, but my glucose levels are only affected slightly, as long as I get at least one dose each day. I get 2IU of insulin twice a day . I also get a dose of Chromium with each meal, which is a natural mineral to help balance glucose levels. I learned this from the Vet food I was prescribed, because it contains Chromium. To help keep your kitty's glucose levels balanced feed a diet high in fibre and low in carbs. Plus, fresh fish I find helps lower glucose levels too and I love it!!!
