This morning bounce didn't last much..... I will keep monitored to see if he will go down to green again!

@Wendy&Neko @Gill & George @Mandy & Rex @MrWorfMen's Mom @Bobbie And Bubba @Marje and Gracie

Today mission is to reach reduction.... It would be appreciated if you can advice on how to surf in the direction of the reduction

This time no high carbs i suppose

 

[Mandy & Rex (GA)]

I looked in on you earlier and thought the bounce was going to last a while.

How long ago was the +4?

 

[Wally & Stefano]

Hello Mandy, i'm going to test +4.5 in 10 minutes exactly.

 

[Mandy & Rex (GA)]

Hello Mandy, i'm going to test +4.5 in 10 minutes exactly.

When was his last meal and was it LC?

 

[Wally & Stefano]

When was his last meal and was it LC?

big meal at PMPS 110gr 1% LC... served also 15gr @+3 ( 1% LC )

 

[Wally & Stefano]

+4.5: 83

 

[Mandy & Rex (GA)]

See you at +5.

 

[Wendy&Neko]

Why are you interested in him earning a reduction? Shouldn’t the goal be to find a dose that puts him in nice numbers as much as possible? By doing that, his body will become more used to good numbers, and begin to bounce less.

 

[Wally & Stefano]

See you at +5.

Is it allowed to play in the meanwhile? He seems in very good mood

Wendy, in my ignorance a reduction is a step toward going off the juice!!! But I'm all in your hands for advice!

 

[Wendy&Neko]

Regulation is a prequisite to remission. Baby steps.

 

[Wally & Stefano]

Let's regulate him!! I'm going to measure +5 in a few minutes...

Are you around for feeding advice?

 

[Wally & Stefano]

+5: 70

advice needed....

 

[Mandy & Rex (GA)]

I'd give him a little of his +6 meal.

 

[Mandy & Rex (GA)]

And test again at +6.

 

[Wally & Stefano]

I felt alone, I gave him 10gr of his LC to calm him down... will measure again in 15 minutes

 

[Wally & Stefano]

And test again at +6.

I will measure +5.5 he loves taking measurements

 

[Mandy & Rex (GA)]

I will measure +5.5 he loves taking measurements

That's great!

 

[Wally & Stefano]

65 @ +5.5

I gave him 10gr of 5% LC

will measure again at +6

 

[Bellasmom]

Nice numbers

 

[Wally & Stefano]

Nice numbers

we love to surf.... but also like the bed.... don't know which one I like better!

 

[Wally & Stefano]

65 @ +6 ....didn't move from where he was before

I didn't feed anything else to see which way he will move

 

[Bellasmom]

we love to surf.... but also like the bed.... don't know which one I like better!

I know that feeling alllllllll to well lol

 

[Mandy & Rex (GA)]

What are you thinking now?

 

[Wally & Stefano]

What are you thinking now?

I am thinking how beautiful and cozy is my bed.... also thinking that tomorrow i will have to get up at 6.30 to test him again and give him insuline

I will test at +6.5 and see if we have to serve him something sweet

 

[Wally & Stefano]

62@ +6.5

I gave him 10gr of 14% MC to see if he decides to change direction ...I'm also falling asleep

 

[Mandy & Rex (GA)]

I'm also falling asleep

If he continues to drop and you really need to sleep, you can abort the cycle by carbing Wally up. However, he may be hitting his nadir anytime.

 

[Wally & Stefano]

65 @+7 stable.... I need to sleep now.... suggestions?

 

[Mandy & Rex (GA)]

65 @+7 stable.... I need to sleep now.... suggestions?

Very sorry, just snoozed off for a few minutes.

I would give Wally a LC snack and head off to bed.

I'm unsure if i should give a 1% or 5% snack .... usually his usual is 1%

 

[Mandy & Rex (GA)]

I'm unsure if i should give a 1% or 5% snack .... usually his usual is 1%

I don't think it would make a difference.

 

[Wally & Stefano]

67 @ +7.5 ...a little up! I gave him some little food and left some on his timed feed for the next 2 hours!

Thank you for your patience and for assisting me

 

[Mandy & Rex (GA)]

Good night!

 

[MrWorfMen's Mom]

Sorry Stefano. I've been out all day and just seeing this now. Wally is doing beautifully. Another lovely surf in the green tonight!

It's tough having a cat on higher doses of insulin and I understand your angst to see that dose reduce, but as Wendy said, first you have to get them regulated and if that means a higher dose for awhile, so be it. Wally needs what Wally needs. My girl was on 16u of insulin twice daily for awhile so I understand what you are going through. It can be scary but Wally is doing great and you are handling this very well. Just don't be afraid of the higher dose because your goal right now is to get and keep Wally as regulated as possible and comfortable in the lower BG ranges. Think of this as a dance. Wally is leading and all you can do if follow his lead.
