Dive question: Girlie was 446@ +2, so the +3= a 194 point dive. But her AMPS was 373, so that would only be a drop of 79 points over 3 hours. But do we look at the last reading to establish whether it is a deep dive? So it's a deep dive from the +2 - right? I'm just trying to confuse myself, perhaps.
Will start Levemir on Fri pm US time (Sat am Oz time). She's still on 1 Unit Lantus right now. I expect she'll go down quickly as she's diving determinedly on the current 1 Unit of Lantus and only stays up with the help of MC and HC food.
Fingers crossed; any tips or tricks or Levemir info, please let me know. Is there a "switching to Levemir" or Levemir-specific info page on FDMB I'm not aware of, I wonder? I did find these two posts: post 1 and post 2. Not sure if there are others. I'm particularly curious about how the feeding schedule needs to change with Levemir.
Max update: thanks for all your concern, everyone! Not so hot.
One canine and several smaller teeth at front removed; had an infection that ate into the bone, so parts of his front jaw will remain permanently separated, but that should be ok. Cause of infection unclear: could be a tumour or result of a cyst; I'll know when the biopsy results come back. Absolutely superb vet dentist said I caught it very, very early, so that's good if the biopsy results are bad. Going to get him now and give him lots of TLC. Poor boy!
Hope everyone surfs safely and is happy and healthy...and all moms and pops get some sleep.
Funny pic: why sleep in your own cat bed when you can barely squeeze into Girlie's, instead?
