07/19 Roo: AMPS = 229, +10.5 = 112 // PMPS = 100/92/80, +1 = 123, +2 = 143, +3 = 190 - no PM shot

Yesterday

Missing those bluuuuues come on Roo, take a dip it's a beautiful day!

Happy Friday guys, hope its a good one

 

Sure you're gonna have a couple of Blues! It's a beach day, Roo!
Have a good Friday, weekend is coming!!

 

+10.5 is 112, wow looks like Roo has been surfing today!

 

Roo's PMPS is 100 right now, planning on testing in another 10-15 without feeding to see if he's coming up but this would be the lowest I've ever shot if I did. Considering giving maybe 0.1U instead of 0.25U?

Not sure what to do!

 

Are you able to stay up and test tonight and do you have plenty of supplies?

 

Hes at 92 now, still haven't fed


I can stay up if need be and I have a variety of food % and karo and strips

 

we'll be up with you if need be == PMPS coming up in a few for us -- haul these guys back out of the lagoon maybe

 

I was going to suggest shooting the 0.25 units, but his number has come down. You can either stall a little longer and see if it comes up, try shooting the reduced dose or skip the shot. If you shoot the reduced dose or skip you may still need to test because the depot may influence the numbers.

 

Testing again in a few mins, but I think I'll give the reduced dose?

 

Let's see what his next number is.

 

He's at 80, so definitely not coming up. Just fed him a 3% FF - still considering what to dose, want to decide in the next 5-10 mins if I'm skipping or not

 

With SLGS he's earned a reduction. If you shoot you're starting off with numbers below a reduction and you'll have to work to get him to come up. If you skip, you'll still need to get his numbers up, but won't have the extra insulin to deal with. You'll still need to test at least until he comes up and stays up for a couple of tests.

 

If it was me, I'd skip. That will give the depot a chance to drain.

 

Okay that sounds good, I'll skip for tonight and start with 0.1U in the morning.

 

Make sure you test at least at +1 and +2 to make sure he's coming up.

 

I'm with you!!! Catcat's PMPS is 92 !!! last time I had a 105, then 113, then 109, and I skipped -- but Linda was saying, based on his history, that I could shoot at 90

he got some food with test, can hardly get one otherwise, so I'll wait and retest (and go find a fresh container of test strips)

 

OMG Catcat be safe for mom!!!

 

Definitely will do every hour up until at least +4 and further if needed just to be safe.

 

retest was 101 -- and he does run slightly higher BG if I feed Friskies -- and I have plenty of that

 

okay, after talking it over with Linda, I'm skipping tonight, even though I feel brave

 

I was feeling brave too and ready to shoot at the 112 and the 92, but then I saw the 80 so I took Carla's advice to skip.

+1 he is at 123, glad he is coming up after his dinner.

 

are these guys communicating ??? maybe we ought to record their playtimes at the beach and in the water ...

was wishing for a device, similar to the fingertip clip used to check oxygen saturation for humans, that we could just clip onto the ear, paw, or whatever, and get an instant BG reading .. the Libre is a start, anyway

 

Ugh wouldn't that be lovely

 

+2 - 143 so still coming up!

 

+1 = 217 .. Catcat responds well to LC food -- this was Fancy Feast .. will get 4Health turkey/giblets for mug-up at +3

 

+3 = 190, he should be safe for tonight right?
