? 07/21 Roo: AMPS = 248, +3 = 242, +6 = 270 // PMPS = 346, +2 = 287 - small dose on calipers?

Yesterday

Mama is hungover and would have loved to sleep in but you gotta do what you gotta do for your babies

Calipers are arriving today so I'm excited to try them out! Hope everyone has a great Sunday

 

A couple of blues for Roo maybe !! Calipers will help you with the small doses you're giving.
Have a great day and try to recover...

 

looks like Catcat is on the same path, I may get my new calipers out and work parallel to you

 

Looks like its gonna be a flat yellow cycle today

 

we'll see -- interesting to see how the reduction affects these guys

 

I guess Roo is still bouncing? Not loving the numbers we've had today and yesterday.

I got my calipers but with the 0.1U dose in the ReliOn syringes, the jaws are so close together its hard to even see how small of a dose that really is. I ended up giving the usual based on the markings since I was in a hurry. I feel like even with a magnifying glass it would be hard to see that small distance - any advice?

 

Bring it on down Roo! No need for the high numbers. Let’s hit the beach

I hear you on the hangover today #diabeticcatmomlife

I’m planning on practicing on callipers in the pm so that I don’t have to worry about rushing out the door.

Hope you had a great weekend

 

Thanks Amanda, good luck with the calipers! I'm so jealous of Mowgs' lovely blues today

 

I think Roo will see some too ... hopefully sooner than later!

Let’s see it Roo

 

c'mon Roo, let's you and Catcat celebrate the reductions by a splash-in tomorrow

quit prowling the sand dunes -- too hot up there

 

I didn’t used Relion syringes, but I have heard the barrel is fatter than some other syringes, which makes the lines closer together. Skinnier barrel means line spread further apart, and easier to see a dose. Definitely try it with a magnifying dose. I occasionally gave Neko tiny doses of R using calipers.

 

I'm not familiar with other syringes, but if it's a wider/fatter syringe the lines would be closer than my BD syringes. (I have no difficulty dosing 0.1 with those.) Definitely try a magnifying glass (I use a small light box like this, under$15 at Walmart, and magnifying visor like this from. Amazon around $20 for hands free.)
The magnifier makes an unbelievable difference...If it doesn't help, I'd consider switching syringes.
