No signs to support pancreatopathy, renal parameters stable. IRIS stage III CKD, stable.Single blood pressure suggestive of hypertension, unclear whether this is situational / stress (hospital environment) or a true finding. To be reassessed at recheck next week and if persistent will require ant ihypertensives - note had adverse response to benazepril so will likely require amlodipine or ARB.Diabetic control has been poor over the past week, however in hospital we are seeing ideal glycemic control with toujeu. A half dose (3U) was administered this morning as Simba is always reluctant to eat while in hospital. Plan Discharge into owners care. Toujeu insulin 7U BID SQ; give 3U if not eating at the time insulin is dueMaropitant 12mg po SID as required for poor appetite, consider increasing to 16mg at next dispenseOndansetron 4mg wafer on gums TID, dose increase. Discontinue this medication first before stopping maropitant.CAlOH: administer 150mg po BID (1/4 of 600mg tablet BID) - best when given with food for phosphate absorption. Prokolin 3ml po BID until normal stool for two daysContinue eye drops as dispensed by ophthalmologyRecheck scheduled on Monday - external CBC / biochemistry- blood pressure- replace freestyle sensor if requiredIf diarrhoea persists beyond 5 days then start metronidazole for 5 days.
