    I know Boris isn't a hi dose kitty but I so want my hi dose family to look at his numbers. You have always been there for me in the past and it's all of you who I know and trust so well. The only thing I haven't figured out is how to link my sheet to FDMB. I don't have a "spreadsheet" really.

    Sp please bear with me and don't shoot me. He's on vetsulin and I'm whispering here but I'm doing the dreaded SS with it. It's working and because of Joe and my work schedule we can watch him so closely. Here's what he's done so far:
    1/9
    9pm = 247…2 units

    1/10
    9am (+12) = 232…2 units
    1:30pm (+4.5) = 48
    4pm (+7) = 99
    8:30pm (+11) = 176
    10pm (+13) = 222
    11pm (+14) = 230
    12MN(+15) = 228…1.5 units
    24 hour totals = 3.5 units

    Vetsulin SS from Dr Hodgkins for now - shhh. However we have no u100 syringes at this time so we will be adapting some parts of SS until those arrive.

    BG Dose
    151-170 0.25u
    171-185 0.50u
    186-200 0.75u
    201-220 1.00u ***We aren’t able to measure 0.25 units
    221-250 1.25u
    251-290 1.50u doses at this time.
    291-350 1.75u
    351-410 2.00u
    411-450 2.25u
    451-500 2.50u


    1/11
    9am (+9) = 155…***
    12:30pm(+12.5) = 245…1.5 units ***
    5:30pm (+5) = 76
    8:30pm (+8) = 163
    10pm (+9.5) = 205…1 units
    24 hour totals = 2.5 units

    1/12
    6am (+8) = 237…1.5 (out all afternoon – no chance for spot checks)
    4:30pm(+10.5) = 206…1 unit
    11pm(+6.5) = 176…0.5 units
    24 hour totals = 3 units

    Mainly eating boiled chicken, a little canned food, some baby food, and some dried chicken treats these first couple days with us.

    1/13
    5am (+6) = 156…0.25units
    11am(+6) = 202…1 unit
    5pm (+6) = 101
    6pm (+7) = 117
    8pm (+9) = 154…0.5units (increased bottom rung of scale as 0.25 doesn’t seem to touch him)
    24 hour totals = 1.75 units
    has really only been eating boiled chicken, some dried chicken treats, bites or raw food. No canned food.

    BG Dose
    151-185 0.50u
    186-200 0.75u
    201-220 1.00u
    221-250 1.25u
    251-290 1.50u


    1/14
    2am (+6) = 194…0.75units
    8am (+6) = 200…1 unit (have to be out all day)
    6p (+10) = 127
    7pm(+11)= 149
    8pm(+12 = 157…0.5 units
    24 hour totals = 2.25 units
    ate 2 cans of Fancy Feast and some bites of chicken

    1/15
    2am (+6) = 136
    3am (+7) = 148
    4am (+8) = 172…0.5u
    10am(+6)= 138
    11am(+7)= 163…0.5u
    3:30pm(+4.5)...142

    Once I figure out the spread sheet you can see it in color but he's mainly "in the blues". And less bouncing around.

    And I'm having a hard time with the new board when the posts are too long getting it to let me go back over things to color it or bold it. Don't know what I'm doing wrong.

    Looks like he can get some good duration! Any thoughts on changing to Lantus or Lev? If so, I happen to have a few boxes of Lantus pens and would be more than happy to share with you and Boris. ;-)

    I guess my only issue with what you are doing is...... PICTURES! Where are the pictures woman???????? :lol: :lol: :lol:
