Rom seems to be clearing his bounces quicker, which is good. AMPS today he was 10.3 (185) . To be safe I gave him a slightly reduced dose of 1.5 as he was only just over my baseline for a reduced shot at 10.0 (180). Should I keep him at 1.5 so I can shoot consistent doses or stick to 1.75?

 

I think 1.5 was fine. Any possibility of getting a nadir today so we can see how it affects him?

 

I am at work, so petsitters just took a +5 which is 12.7 (229). I can't get another test until PMPS but i will see if my other half can if he gets in early enough.

 

It may be that he drops later. Your green a few cycles ago might be considered close enough to earn a reduction. I would say either try 1.5 or maybe give 1.5 when you get those lower preshots and stick with 1.75 for the higher ones?

 

That sounds like a plan!!

 

+11 he's 5.8 (104). What should I dose in an hour?

 

Wow. He is still dropping. I would stick to your general 180 no shoot number (especially as you use a pet meter) I think you will have to stall and see if he comes up. And if he is just barely within that 180 range, I think I would drop the dose again - maybe 1.25 if you can monitor?

This is good news but nerve wracking. He seems to be adjusting well to the insulin and needing less every few cycles (and bouncing too) which is great news but it makes deciding what to give more difficult.

 

180 is not my no shoot number, it is the number where I start to reduce the dose. I will give 1.25 if he is around 180 and have to see about a token dose for any lower.

 

Tricky decision making when you get into this range but very hopeful sign all the same.

 

At PMPS he was 10.8 (194) so I reduced his dose to 1.25
At +3 he was 16.7 (301)
