Been pretty flat last night! Looks like he is getting used to the lows. No blacks and reds (yet!).
Has there been any change in the last 2 weeks? Like a food change?

The only change is that for maybe a week and a half he was eating friskies because I couldn’t get my hands on fancy feast. But I found fancy feast again a week and a half ago or so ( I should have noted it)
Ava-and-Milo

Basically I think he was eating friskies all the way up until about 11/11 ish?

But both were low carb?
Sometimes a change in food from high carb to low carb or the stoppage of steroid medication etc causes numbers to suddenly improve. Its like the cat has flipped a switch. Just making sure there are no other variables involved.

Done!

Yeah both were low carb. But he has also had some tiki cat meals during the fancy feast - I just happen to be out right now. I’ll add that to the note I made on the 11/11 line

I so appreciate your help!! I would be LOST without you both!

Okay so his +1 is 220, I’m leaving for work right now but I scheduled my lunch to come back for his +4.5 till his +5.5

Feed some LC and leave some food out for him?
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
On jt!! I hope he doesn’t get it low.. this is the second morning Where his AMPS is his lowest so I hate not being home all day for it
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
So he has a slower drop today. At +4.5 he is at 186. I’ll be home till +5.5 to check him out

Sounds good! Is it normal to run into a non active cycle or does it indicate the insulin dose needs to be adjusted?

Totally normal. He’s holding the reduction which is really a good sign. Look how much better his ss looks already.
Ava-and-Milo

Okay good to hear. I am loving his chart right now! I didn’t know how much the colors blue and green would mean to me 
Ava-and-Milo

Almost our PMPS and he is at 156. His lowest PMPS so far!
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
PMPS is 153 
Curious on your insight if this will be a big drop tonight since he is starting so low?

Yeah very odd. Was shooting the right move when it was his nadir?
Bandit's Mom

Looks like he is saving the action for the night! CATS!

Yes. It’s a safe number to shoot. With meter variance it could be the same as his +11. Wait until you start shooting green.
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
Shooting green blows my mind haha. It seems so wrong lol. But I’m hoping it happens one day. I’d love to get greens like that
tiffmaxee
Very Active Member
You will. I think soon. Lol.

Just gave him 1/2 can of FF pate chicken. He is eating
Bandit's Mom
Very Active Member
1/2 a can is too much. You don't want to fill him up early in the cycle. A spoon of food every hour should keep him surfing nicely.
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
He stopped eating - didn’t even finish half of the 1/2 can. So should I pick up his food so he doesn’t go back?
Bandit's Mom
Very Active Member
Yes. Offer it to him at +2 and/or +3.
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
Got it! Thank you 
Ava-and-Milo

About twenty minutes post food snd he is 131. Not much movement happening. I’m kinda nervous!
Bandit's Mom
Very Active Member
Let's see what he does later in the cycle. Relax.
Ava-and-Milo

+2 we are at 98.. another spoon of food?
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
I gave him a little lc food again. I think? I did the right thing because while he was eating he scanned an 85
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
He is at 75 but I don’t think the little lc he had has kicked in yet
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
@Bandit's Mom @tiffmaxee i think that’s how you tag? We will see. I’m sorry I keep posting I’m just getting nervous. He keeps dropping. He is at 65 now. I just gave him two temptation treats to raise him up a bit
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
I do. I have it ready to go if needed
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
At what number should I feed that? If he gets lower than 60? Edit to add he is at 59 now
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
Okay I have fed him a spoonful of the 14% wet food. Crossing fingers and toes here. I don’t want another hypo event
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
He’s at 55 now.. but I know it takes 20-30 minutes.. just updating. I’m sorry that my anxiousness is so apparent right now
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
He is at 47.. I’m giving another spoon of the 14%
Ava-and-Milo
Active Member

Ava-and-Milo
Active Member
