18/2/15 Lucy AMPS 157 +2 103 +3 94 +4 79 +5 117 +7 137 PMPS 187

We are getting blue numbers more often at AMPS and PMPS now. Today I gave Lucy her insulin with a glucose reading of 8.7/157 and this is the lowest glucose level I have given an insulin dose. We have had lower pre-dose glucose levels but this is the lowest I have dosed at. I am home all day to monitor Lucy closely and I will do a +2 test soon.

 

Good work Voula

 

Well done Voula - paws crossed for smooth sailing today.

 

A good drop at +2 so we will probably go from blues to greens again today it seems.

 

In green numbers now.

 

I hope you've resisted the urge to break out the HC maybe a couple of tsp of LC at this point to encourage the surf though

 

A tiny amount of HC as I had to go out for half an hour and then I raced home again. But it made no difference as the glucose level dropped after the HC food. I have established that Lucy needs honey to raise her glucose levels so really I don't know why I gave that small amount of HC food. Thank you Serryn.

 

Maybe the small amount of HC food at +3 when I had to go out has made a difference at +5. It is all good data though which I need to build my confidence that I can raise Lucy's glucose levels if I need to.

 

Great cycle today. Next time, try giving a couple tsp of LC when she hits the green.

 

Thank you Wendy. Yes I have been giving a teaspoon of low carb with each test but gave some high carb as I had to go out and was anxious.

 

Soon you will be saving the HC for the 50-60 range.

 

Yes.

 

A whole cycle in blues and greens today which is so good.

 

Fantastic seems a more appropriate description that's what starts to happen when you shoot those lower numbers well done to both of you

 

Thank you Serryn.
