Yesterday...

0.5 units of R appeared to have no impact at AM +7 yesterday. I gave 1 unit this morning. My biggest concern is causing another bounce that will keep him from breaking the one that started yesterday. How is he supposed to get used to better numbers if he spends most of his time bouncing from them?
 
AMPS = 419 (1st meal)
[10 units L, 1 unit R]
+2 = 296
+4 = 200 (2nd meal)

Looking at previous data, I was NOT expecting to get that much mileage out of 1 unit. This is exactly what I was trying to avoid. Hope he doesn't bounce too high tonight.
 
It looks like food is given twice a day do you think you could feed smaller meals more often? I found with my kitty Fritz that if I see a high number and test like at +2 or +3 and his number is dipping fast I feed him some food to slow that dip. Little meals more frequently helps keep the numbers from dipping and spiking. But ECID some kitties bounce more than others. I see at +4 you fed a second time hopefully the next test will reflect a slower dip:):bighug:

I feed him 4 times a day: AMPS, AM + 4, PMPS, and PM + 4. He's often high and flat during the day unless I give R... but I'm very happy to have that 4th meal ready when he starts to dive on the PM cycle!
 
I'm not sure what happened today... maybe he was ready to start coming down from the bounce, with or without R. But at +10, he's still not showing any signs of bouncing from this morning's drop from red to yellow - yay! Though I'll be cautious tonight. I've seen him drop during the first part of the AM cycle, coast for the next 6 hours, then drop quickly after the PM dose when coming down from a bounce.

AMPS = 419 (1st meal)
[10 units L, 1 unit R]
+2 = 296
+4 = 200 (2nd meal)
+6 = 189
+8 = 175
+10 = 184

:cool:
 
He's already down to 78 at +4. Just ate his last meal (half a 5.5 oz can of LC, ~96 kcal). Staying up for a +5 in an hour. I've got 2/3 can of MC 13% from the night before last (how long does it stay fresh in the refrigerator?) and half a can of LC 2% from this morning to give him if it's still in the 70s or high 60s... but I've got a busy day tomorrow and can't skip half a night of sleep. Ready to give HC to keep him safe until +8 if necessary.
 
You've got bounce breaking momentum as well as possible second cycle after R action - feel free to apply HC to help you get more sleep.
