    Hello !!

    I am giving Fudge the insulin up to the first line in the needle. What would that be called ? The line between .25 and no insulin at all ?

    I looked it up and it's considered some insulin. I put down .15 ..Does that sound right ?

    Thanks

    Holly

    I'm not sure, some use an S in the spread sheet..great Q !
    @Kako & Tux was the master of micro dosing, maybe she can tell ?
    From .25 to just before the needle is .1 if that helps, then to the needle would logically be less than that not more

    Ohhh Fudge, you are almost there! Keep up the good work.:cat: Not sure what to tell you to put down on your spreadsheet. I think as long as you make a note in the margin you're fine. I don't think their is a hard fast rule.

    If it looks like this we consider it .1 dose. The next reduction would be "some" insulin where you just push the plunger in firmly and release.

    Micro dosing. The best of times. The worst of times!;) At least as far as loading the syringe. I don't think it really matters what you call it, as long as you know how much you're loading!

    Looking great Fudge.
