Hubby was in charge this morning - hence the additional testing.

Hope everyone has a great Sunday.

Prayers for @Ana & Frosty and @Squalliesmom and @Amanda & Shmee and @Beck and Grandpa

 

Nice surfing for Gizmo.

 

You look really cool in your cowboy hat, Gizmo. (You also look really cool in dark green BGs.)
Purrs,
Felix

 

Blessings and hugs to Hubby, the tester extraordinaire

 

Well, hot diggity dog! Look at Gizmo!!! YeHa!!!

 

Need dose advise. Skip? Remember I have to go back to work tomorrow. Will not be home to monitor...

 

That would really drain the depot........ I wish he would reveal right now whether he was going to bounce a bit from being in greens most of the day........ If you skipped what would you shoot tomorrow AM?

What if you reduced tonight to 1 unit and shot 1 unit tomorrow and use MC food to start him off with and a combo of LC and MC for the feeder. I hate to see you lose this momentum, but I understand your concern. You know what you are comfortable with.

 

Depends on his PS but he hasn't bounced really. Reduce to 1U for the week? IDK what to do

 

Assuming he went under 50 today (which he probably did) that would be 4 under 50 on this dose.

 

Come on Gizmo, tell us your plan!???? I know Lizzie it is a hard call. If he is eating well for you, I would probably shoot 1 unit starting tonight.

How about putting up a ? mark and see what some others think.

 

I would go with the reduction then.

 

I think I have to for safety and sanity. It was a nice, long, beautiful run on 1.25U. Kinda sad to see it go

 

Be positive and think Gizmo is ready to give 1u a run for all its worth!

 

PMPS=58

History:
AMPS=105, +2=128, +3=99, +4=78, +5=51, +6=57, +11=60

Reduced to 1.0U.

 

I like the way you think. I just can't risk it with work being what it is right now.

 

Here is my thinking...

This is a controlled reduction without a skipped or BCS shot. I was risking a skip or BCS by not taking the reduction and completely losing any depot and starting from scratch. We will give this dose a run.

Please... Everyone remind me of this when I am disappointed with the higher numbers going forward this week

Why, why, why couldn't he have pulled this at the beginning of the week???

 

I don't see an under 50 today. If we don't see it, it didn't happen. Remind me again what you are using for a reduction criteria?

 

I swear why do they always pick the worst times?!?! Good luck, surf safely rootin tootin Gizmo!

 

Well, technically it is called the work reduction criteria . IDK really Wendy. I am trying to keep him in good numbers, work full time and manage to get decent sleep.

 

You have going for you that Gizmo is not a diver.

 

I get that, just want to know if you had any specific reduction criteria. Makes it much easier for us if you are asking for dosing advice. Many people with long term diabetics use 3 times under 50. Or once under 40, or either. He would have earned a reduction under the first criteria.

 

Even though it might result in slightly higher numbers, you have to keep Gizmo safe. That is the most important thing.
