Condo 03/29
Reduction failed going back to previous dose. He'll do better at our next try!
It's Saturday, it's snowing and I have to do my Income Tax.... yeurk !!!

 

Sounds like a good day to do taxes with it snowing and all.

Next time reducie will work.

 

Snow?!

Hope you have a relaxing day with Ti despite needing to do taxes haha

 

Are you reducing for Ollie today ?

 

Saw that Ming had many nice GREENS yesterday and the day before !

 

Yes I did.

 

I'll watch how she does. Nice to see that since a while you keep reducing !

 

I take reduction at 60, but she always passes it by the time it's caught.

I notice she is staying longer on a dose, not like before. Because of the cabergoline, her reductions can be large ones and close together.

 

Ravan usually drops the lowest during the night between +4 to +6 Could you try to get some tests in at that time to see what the insulin is doing then?

If you had a few tests in on 3/24 at night & saw he was dropping lower you could have fed him a little med carb food & might have avoided the 49 at shot time?
You don't want to feed 2 hours before a shot but at +7 or 8 it would be OK. 10 days ago I skipped a shot (first time) he was at 38.

I've been here a year & I still re-read the Yellow Sticky notes "What is the Insulin depot?"
I know in TR we usually do increases & decreases in 6 cycles but In the beginning I discovered if i waited 5 or 6 days the BG sometimes came down lower.

Experimenting is how I learned more about what to do. I'm still reading & trying to learn more.

I hope he does well on the increase. Be Patient (not easy I know!!)

 

Sorry, what do you mean by 3/24 ?

 

I'm trying to get everybody used to the same new feeding schedule:
AMPS: test, shoot. breakfast (same for PMPS);
during the day snacks or small meals always right after testing and making sure there's 3 hours between tests!

At night, my latest is +4, unless I see something coming up; I used to go to bed at +1.5, what a change !!!

 

Interesting, I noticed that too with Ti-Mousse; a few times I went longer and noticed he was finally responding. Something to consider !!

 

PMPS 329..... Will be easier for Ti-Minou tomorrow!!

 

Lyana, Ti-Mouse has improved so much since dental ... NINE blues in last 11 days
Sometimes I think we don’t realize how things are moving in a positive direction because once they start we loose site of how, just so recent it has begun.
Time. (Positive) Patience.
Ti-Mouse is looking good !!!

 

You're right, he's definitely doing so much better since dental !! It's just that when I increase the dose, he's so miserable.. doing nothing but sleeping! I feel sorry for him..

 

Unfortunately, when things start moving in the right direction, we think of "where we are now and where we want to go" instead of "where we were and where we want to go"!!

 

Hang in there Lyane! This is the 2nd cycle since the dose increase and he is probably having some NDW . I think by tomorrow, you will see his numbers coming down.

It's just been 11 days since the dental. Did he lose any teeth at the dental appointment? If so, there will be some inflammation for at least 7 -10 days. Now with the dose increase and NDW, don't get too excited yet.

 

My poor little thing had 6 extractions... but as you say, I have to expect NDW with this new dose... Tks for this little boost, feels good
