2/20 Basil OTJ Trial Day 3 AMBG=107 +3.5=79 PMPS=87

Yesterday's Condo

Good Morning, LLers!

So Basil has decided to revisit the low blues for us. I'm hoping this is just his normal range and that a +3 or +4 will reveal a better number!

He is laying a bit low because we have a house guest and Basil is very shy with strangers. This is someone he has never met and she stayed last night and will do the same tonight.

He did seem a little miffed that I gave him 3/8 can for breakfast instead of the usual 1/2 can! But he was all purry when I went to visit him in his chair afterward so I think all is forgiven. For now.

Question: I wasn't sure if the blue preshot meant feed on the low side or feed a regular meal, so I risked erring on the side of caution. (about 10 to 15 calories less out of his usual 40 to 45).

Wishing everyone in LL a lovely Saturday! (Gotta run and go make tea for Daughterbean who is home from college (with the above-mentioned friend) and has a cold.)

This is still a non-diabetic range. Generally, if you see a higher than expected number, giving some food and seeing if the numbers come down in a couple of hours is a great way to see how well Basil's pancreas is working.

Re: 2/20 Basil OTJ Trial Day 3 AMBG=107 +3.5=79

Thank you for all the well-wishes and vines, everyone. It worked!

I couldn't decide between a +3 and a +4, so I compromised on a +3.5 and got a 79. We like.

Paige--glad you liked the pictures. I took some, by Sonbean took most of the really good ones!
