    09/20 +11=76

    AMPS=53 (retest 57)

    Shot 1.0U (reducie) - I had measured the dose before I tested PS and had already skinnied it up - when I decided to go ahead and shoot I decided on 1.0U - when I adjusted the calipers and measured - that was exactly what it was.

    My biggest issue is the epogen shot (given on Friday evenings) - it tends to raise his BG - sometime significantly. Otherwise I would have just skipped this morning.

    @Wendy&Neko asked what my reduction threshold was - I guess it is when I can't shoot and leave to go to work knowing he is safe. I really don't know what I am doing.

    I am still not feeling good (worse, infact, than yesterday) - so if I have to stay home it won't be the end of the world but there is an important meeting this afternoon :banghead:

    Happy Friday everyone :bighug:

    I really can't - I can't get back to sleep and I am already on the cusp of exhaustion all the time.

    Thanks. Any advise on what to do food wise? Should I add some MC gravy to his +2.5 (about 45 min)?

    I would give a little MC just because you haven't gotten to onset and he's the same where he usually has a bit of a food bump.

    Just now reading this - dang it. Well, added 2 tablespoons of MC to his +2.5 food which he ate all of (licked the bowl clean). Testing @ +3 in just a few min. Will give more MC and add honey if still really low.

    +6=58

    Put a tablespoon MC on top of the rest of his +4.5 food (about 1/2 left). His feeder will turn at +6.5 with his YA kibbles. I am going to try and catch some sleep.

    Yes! I know exactly what you mean. Even when Ravan is doing a bit better I'm too wound up to fall asleep. I've been doing Yoga & meditating for over 15 yrs but when it comes to my Kitties I'm a big mess :(

    Hope you can grab a few ZZZZ's & feel better this weekend :bighug:

    It scares the crap out of me. He definitely would NOT have been safe if I had not stayed home. I just never know when he is going to pull this and what if I couldn't have been home? I just don't know what to do.

    I hate it when I have to go to work and Scooter's low. I'm a nervous wreck all day. I'm just lucky he always eats so I can add carbs to his snacks to help keep him safe. Nice looking cycle. Glad you were able to stay home. Hope you feel better.
