Gentle is doing just great! Shot 2.50U, fed FF LC 3% and gave him lots of praise and kisses for taking himself back in the blue overnight!

Hi Pat

I"m sure Gentle kisses are wonderful too!

Re: 02/19 Gentle AMPS 172

Good boy, Gentle! Keep it up!

bump! :arrow:

 

Re: 02/19 Gentle AMPS 172 +4 148 +5.5 68

Gentle back in the green, check in 30 mins. coming up ! Gentle must be encouraged by watching the olympics, Hooray for Canada !

 

Re: 02/19 Gentle AMPS 172 +4 148 +5.5 68

Well look at that purty number!

You were wanting green yesterday!! (How is it that you get Gentle to listen? Can you teach me how to do that with Gabby?)

 

Re: 02/19 Gentle AMPS 172 +4 148 +5.5 68 +6 69 +7 49

:lol: I think he just likes to see me happy

Fed him a little snack FF 3% about 1/2 teaspoon, and I want to test him again in another 15 mins just to see if he's going to go down again (fingers crossed)

 

Re: 02/19 Gentle +7 49 +7.5 42 Question

gentle likes those greens too much to stay away for too long! :mrgreen:

 

Re: 02/19 Gentle +7 49 +7.5 42 Question

I know I'm kind of jumping the gun, but if Gentle continues to go down this way and at his PM time he is still in the low greens, I wouldn't shoot that right? Would I maybe compensate with MC food?

and yes if he goes below forty he's at another dose decrease :RAHCAT YAAYY Gentle!

 

Re: 02/19 Gentle +7 49 +7.5 42 Question

*usually* we shoot anything on the rise over 50 "IF" you'll be around to monitor and are prepared to bring numbers up with hc if necessary. looks like you've shot 3 & 3.5u on 70s- 90s in the past. let's see what happens. gentle may go up fast towards the end of the cycle. personally, i don't believe in inflating the numbers with mc in order to get a higher preshot number.

if i were in your shoes, i would try to keep him over 40 in order to hang onto the dose longer since there's still a lot of yellow and some pink in-between the greens because lantus and levemir are known to have a harder time bringing down higher numbers.

thank you, I hadn't thought about it that way

Re: 02/19 Gentle +7 49 +7.5 42 +10 70

most of us don't think about that. i know i didn't the first time alex was on insulin. i LOVE lantus and lev, but they just don't seem to be able to pull down those higher numbers as easily as lower numbers.

there's the rise. looks like there shouldn't be a problem with shooting at pmps time...

 

Re: 02/19 Gentle +7 49 +7.5 42 +10 70

Great day Gentle! :mrgreen:

 

Re: 02/19 Gentle +7 49 +7.5 42 +10 70 PMPS 165

Gentle doing great! All 5 ps, shot 2.50U and fed FF LC 3%. Hubby has a gig, we'll be away for about four hours but will test him right when we get home!

We're back, Gentle is doing well, had a small snack FF LC 3% about 1/2 teaspoon.

 

Re: 02/19 Gentle +7 49 +7.5 42 +10 70 PMPS 165 +4 140

gentle's looking good! not much of a bounce at all...
