    Ok so my car has been having interesting blood glucose levels. The past few days he has had low numbers 168-90 on 1unit.

    This morning I accidentally missed his dose. I tested him a few times and at one point he was at 100.

    This evening pre shot he was 127. I gave him 0.5units and at +2 he is at 79. He usually doesn’t hit nadir until +4. I gave him a few treats and a little of his favorite gravy food to slow the drop.

    Has anyone seen this before is he trying to go into remission?

    You might want to take it to a mechanic :p (sorry couldn't resist)

    Cocoa ss is indeed looking very nice and looking promising. The beauty of the depot is that kitty still has access to insulin even if we miss a shot. Some recover quite nicely from a missed shot/ fur shot.

    Are you still doing SLGS?

    There are two doses below 0.5. They are 0.25 units and 0.1 units. You might want to try the 0.25 unit dose next. There are pictures in the Sticky Notes on fine dosing. He's running a tiny bit higher for going solo without insulin.

    I can see the 0.25 but doing 0.1 might be hard lol. He is getting insulin once a day now in the evening 0.5. In the morning his blood glucose has been lower than I am comfortable dosing.
