Let's see where he is at +2
Do you break up his morning meal into PS, +1 and +2? That helps prevent dives at onset.

 

I'm unsure what PS (portion size?) I did feed him a smaller amount so I can give him more at +2?

 

Sorry. PS is pre-shot. AMPS and PMPS

For cat's that tend to dip at onset, feeding smaller meals in the first couple of of hours of the cycle helps. So a little with the shot, a little at +1 and the rest at +2.

 

Oh yes! I'll give a little at +1 also. My feeder came yesterday!

 

Great! Shall wait for a +2.

Today, maybe set alarms on your daughter's phone to feed him at +3 and +4? Assuming you will be back at +4 or +5 to test him?

 

What numbers should be be at at +4 or +5 that I wouldn't have to come back for a +6?

 

It's not so much a number, as much as him flattening out. I guess high 60s and above should be safe enough. Yesterday he went from 68 at +4 to 95 at +6.
Hopefully over the next 3 days, we can figure out where his nadir is. Would be a useful data point.

 

+2 is +67
I fed him lc and set alarms for 930 and 1030 feedings. 1030 is +4

Should I go into work late?

 

I’d feed a little lc/mc. Are you supposed to leave now?

 

Think just MC might be better since she has to go to work?

 

If leaving now yes. Will your daughter feed mc also? That was a big drop but hopefully will level out now.

 

Yes. Daughter can do other carb

 

What if I wait for a +3 and work later this afternoon? I can sell come home at +6

 

that is excellent!

what did you feed at +2? just LC or a little MC as well? feed some MC if you haven't.

 

I did give some lc at +2 and dinner mc at +2.5

 

As long as she gets some mc I am not sure it matters if it’s a lc/mc mix or all mc as long she gets a couple tsp of mc. Going in a little later is great!

 

+3 70

 

Excellent. Feed LC now. Get your daughter to feed LC at +4 and +5.

 

+6 is 73.

 

Very nice. A little lc and carry on with your day until PMPS.

 

Thank you so much.
Any best case/worse case scenarios here?

For the long run?

 

If he stays in normal numbers for a week we try an OTJ trial. That’s mostly under 80. but a few around 100 would be okay. Fingers and paws crossed. Anti jinx. No worst case senarios.

 

THANKS! =)

Also, should he have low carb more than just now, like a small spoon every hour? or fine until 630 pm?

 

Just now. If you grab a test at +9.5 or sooner if you are home and if he’s lower give a little lc.

 

I wasn't able to get home until 11.5 to test him. Since I won't be going in tomorrow, I worked late. He is at 100. I can test again I'm 30 min before his shot

 

It’s fine you didn’t get another test. This one was fine. He should be fine to shoot. With you being hime the next few days we can experiment with food and testing to hopefully make it easier for you when you go back to work.

 

Thank you. Should I test again right now PMPS?

 

Yes. Know it seems silly but it can change in 30 minutes.

 

Wow. Isn't that the truth. PMPS 83!

 

There’s also meter variance which is 20% so about the same.

 

+2 is 81

 

Feed a little mc and check in an hour.

 

+3 83

 

Very nice. A little lc and a +4.

 

Ok thank you

 

+4 104

 

It’s okay. Get some sleep.
