Definitely a Happy New Year!

Btw, no tests last night or SS not updated?

 

I'm wondering what happened last night? Hopefully this is not the first number where you've seen a drop from those dreadful reds...

Happy New Year!!

 

She stayed in the 300’s last night
Happy new year

 

If Chica doesn't see any low blues in today's AM cycle, it might make sense to increase her to 2.75U tonight.

I agree with Bhooma...it's really important Suzi to start to push a bit on these increases. Her numbers are simply too high! If you're home at this time, please increase every 6 cycles until she starts to improve. I know that soon work will interfere with being aggressive...so let's try to do it now, while you're home...let's see how much insulin it takes to get that girl to see the light of some better numbers!

Have a great day!

 

Looks like the bounce is clearing. I bet you will see blue today if like past cycles. If not I would increase tonight or if you prefer tomorrow morning. Happy new year!

 

I updated it this morning... thank you

 

Agreed . Today was the 6th cycle on 2.5.
The dose will increase tonight

 

Nice yellows! But I'm looking forward to seeing some blues and greens....
Good luck with the increase!
Happy new year.

 

happy new year!

 

Happy new year

 

How do y’all handle the vets need to control the amount of the dose.
He will never go for me bumping up the dose to 2.75
He thinks I’m still at 2.25
Just keep it to myself I guess?

 

Yep. Keep it to yourself for now. As your spreadsheet shows how well she is doing you can show it to them. My vet did not try to control Max’s diabetes.

 

firmly agree w elise.
and i'll add that many find themselves trying to "split the difference" between vet and board dose recos. so if you're feeling that tension, it's normal

 

You hold the syringe. Many people perfect the "smile and nod" technique. I also gave my vet a copy of the Tight Regulation protocol and said - I am following that. That helped the vet know I was basing decisions on science and a published paper. After a couple weeks of seeing the spreadsheet and what I was doing, the vet was fine with it. Of course it helped my case that a locum vet had pointed me here and told me that FDMB would help with dosing. Pretty soon the vet visit discussion of dosing became "what dose is she on now?", "OK".

 

I understand...
I increased her dose tonight 2.75
