2/15 Moses PMPS 226

Moses is back in the blues, everybody! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

In fact, he was green last night ;-) I think his liver is doing some bouncy bounce for today. His peak is 30 points higher than his AMPS. He did eat a huge breakfast. Hopefully this dose increase to 1u has begun at the best time opportunity. I'd hate it to hit too hard!

And amazing news: He didn't yelp this morning with the injection! I tried a new technique with the angle of the syringe, I'm kinda lifting my arm like the elbows in the chicken dance and I think it helps the needle slide straight in and out. What a success!

Pat & Raja & Shadow - You mentioned yesterday to roll the syringe in my fingers before injecting. Do you mean I actually roll and touch the metal needle part? Or do you mean the whole syringe? Like a pencil between the fingers? Is this to heat up the insulin, or get rid of bubbles?

Yay, Moses! Don't let your liver panic too much, ok? Your bean is so happy with blues and greens, so try to hang in there.

Interesting about rolling the syringe. I'd love to find out what exactly Pat meant because I've never heard that before and maybe I am missing out on something!

Erica this is wonderful!!! So glad to see that Moses is calming down into some lower numbers. :mrgreen:

 

Re: 2/15 Moses AMPS 161 +6.5~193

if you roll teh part of the syringe with the insulin between your fingers it might warm the insulin itself up a little. Glad the syringe went in well today....sometimes, an angle too deep goes into the muscle. Good job Erica! Moses has some nice numbers going on here!! yay! :mrgreen:

Just holding the syringe in your hot little hand will heat it up :lol: -No seriously it will..
Then Moses wont mind too much (we hope)..

 

Ha! That made me laugh, Roni & Moonie :lol: hot little hands

Thanks for the tip, Pat & Raja & Shadow. Great advice, I tried it tonight, and voila! No yelp! :mrgreen:

Ya'll are awesome. Seems like Moses might be a rainbow boy tonight, we'll see if we get a third color in before bedtime. Still kinda sleepy. Still hungry for the greenies ;-)
