06/29 Mishka AMPS 527 our first blacks PMPS 295

Don't know, what else to say.
Tough night, +3 212 then AMPS 527. Our first ever blacks.
Nobody told me on switching to Levemir that I was choosing a much more nerve-wracking option

I'm sorry you are having a hard time.
Levemir is a really good insulin and the problems you are having at the moment probably have more to do with Mishka's mouth problems and her vomiting and diarrhoea than with the Levemir.

I would take her to the vet with those issues, especially the mouth issue which is stopping her eating.
It does sound as if she is hungry and then with the food it either hurts her to eat or she is nauseated. Either way she needs treatment for it. If you leave it too long you will run into other potentially more serious problems.
The black this morning could be a bounce from the yellow numbers in the pm cycle last night or from pain or infection.

 

PMPS 295. Appetite is back (although only for things pre-chewed). Can I switch to SLGS now, please?

 

I’m glad her appetite is back. Are you going to take her to the vet about her mouth.?
You can swap to SLGS if you want but you won’t be able to increase the dose sooner than 7 days and your reduction number will be 90.

Is there a particular reason why you want to swap to SLGS?

 

The only way to get rid of the wild swings and bouncing is by getting Mishka to a dose where she spends time in normal blood sugar numbers. TR will let you get there much faster. If you don't see any blue before the 1st, you can increase to 1.5 units.

 

I'm not sure I can handle any more of these bounces. She looked awful, I thought she was dying.

UPD She becomes more and more impatient and wiggly at testing and injecting. It's probably better not to annoy her that much...
