Morning All,

This levemir will definitively need a new learning curve. What kind of thing is
thing this morning ?? Blue at the morning ???? Holding him down for now to see if he's
rising or hanging there. If he's rising he'll get his shot.
BTW, for those who haven't seen the bird pictures you can see some nice ones in
''Yesterday'' down below.

Good day, got to prepare myself.

Lev has a later onset and a later nadir than lantus.

With Lev onset is around +4/+5 and nadir can run from around +8 to +10, and if SK gets a bit more duration he might even nadir later, even as late as +12 or +13 in some cycles.

So with Lev you would expect the numbers to be higher, generally, at around +1 to +4, then provided there is no bounce involved you would expect the onset to start and numbers starting to slide down from +4, having the lowest numbers from +8 onwards.

Hope that makes sense.
 
The dose was also started at a higher level than recommended. I hope SK surfs safely today. With Doodles duration is much longer with Levemir than it was with Lantus. Although onset is typically around +4 or +5 if he took a good dive into AMPS he has tanked as early as +2.

Think you were wise by stalling for an hour this morning.
 
You'll get the hang of it. As others mentioned, nadir can be at preshot time, I see this with Jack frequently. He nadirs anywhere from +8 to +12. For Jack, the +4 is a good test, if he rises, it is a normal cycle, if he drops I know to get some extra tests in.

Hope Small Kitty doesn't get panicky liver and shoot up after a blue start for the day.
 
Beautiful blue this morning Small Kitty. Be safe for daddy bean while he is at work.
 
+8 to +10, and if SK gets a bit more duration he might even nadir later, even as late as +12 or +13 in some cycles.

Would be quite practical to catch low numbers at preshot. With my schedule having a nadir
during the week pointing to a reducy would be right on target.

Don't know if Small Kitty touched green last night. Sadly waking up before my
8h continuous sleep would make my coworker pay the hard price :). System doesn't
like it also, to be avoided as much as possible.
