16.1. Simba PMPS 94 +1 54 +1.25min 27 +1.45min 47 +2.25 74 +2.75 92 +4 92 +5 83

As long as he gets enough of the carbs you can mix it with anything. Are you okay? You are doing great. Zorro is having the same type of cycle right now.

 

Okay, perfect. I am a bit shaky but fine! Simba is right next to me ready for his next test. I’ll have a look at how Zorro is doing!

 

The 27 shocked me! I wasn’t expecting it to drop so suddenly!

 

I know. What % is the lc you feed?

 

3.1% today. He has some variety, the highest LC being 7.9% I think.

 

Ok. Write in the comments section of your ss what you have fed and at what intervals for the future.

 

Never mind. See you did that.

 

+2 74. When should I test next?

 

Feed a little lc and test in 30.

 

So you didn’t need the 911 this time because you knew that I was watching. If ever you test and get a bg under 50, add the 911 if you need help. It’s for times like this, if you need quick help. Has your heart rate come down?

 

Okay, I’ll know next time! Thanks for walking me through this. My heart rate is that of a marathon runner

 

Still? I don’t think his bg will go low again tonight. We need to see him go without food for about 2 hours unless we see he’s bouncing sky high before you can go to sleep though.

 

That is fine. It's only 22:30 here. I'm glad Simba got this show out of the way first thing in the evening

 

Me too. I thought it would be quick but not that quick. It will be interesting to see if he bounces. Right now he came up from the hc but going that low he might bounce.

 

I’m awaiting the next test.

 

92 Tried to prick his ear 5 times without having the lancet in...

 

Lol. Adrenaline. No food and test in an hour. Breathe. Think chocolate or ice cream for you. What’s your preference?

 

Can I stretch it to an hour and 10mins? Clogging up my SS with the off-hour measurements hahah.
I'd go for ice cream, but I've already brushed my teeth! Tomorrow then.

 

Of course.

 

I love ice cream too. But all carbs I like but they don’t like me. I’ve gained weight being hime so much with Covid going wild where I live.

 

Since Simba got diagnosed I’ve been so stressed and worried that I’ve lost a fair amount of weight. The more I worry the less I eat! Combined with being ill myself... I’ll allow all of the carbs once swallowing food isn’t a pain anymore!

 

Yes, that stress is when I lose too. Not fun at all.

 

+4 92. My boy is in a food coma. Can I check back in an hour and possibly feed some LC?

 

Yes. Don’t feed again. If he’s staying up in an hour you can feed a snack and go to sleep. I’d almost say you are fine now.

 

Okay. I will just check his BG in an hour. I don’t think he needs more food either. Maybe if I wake up at night and can’t sleep until I test him I’ll have some more data too.

 

If you want to do that you could go to sleep now. I really think he’s safe. It’s just the late nadirs at times and my being extra cautious since I’m not there with you.

 

I’ll do one more test in 40mins. If he isn’t changing his course drastically I’ll sleep. thank you for being here with us through Simba’s first <50 BG!

 

Your welcome. Sleep well.

 

+5 83. LC snack and I’m off to bed. Goodnight!

 

Good night. Bets on whether he’s high in the morning? I say no.

 

I say no as well

 

Remember that you have to take care of yourself and stay healthy, because it needs you to take care of it !!
I suffered the same, but I soon realized that I have to be well and take care of myself, to take care of him !!

 

Maybe others will weigh in. GN.

 

Not at all surprised to see Simba earned a reduction tonight. Congrats! You did a great job handling Simba's drop below 50, Lina! You're learning quickly.
He won't be high in the morning.

 

Thank you! I was the one in panic mode throughout it all while Simba was just like “oh, more food? okay then!” But he did allow me to sleep for the rest of the night. AMPS for today in about 20mins!

 

That is very true!
