3/24 - Phoebe --amps 274

we are still riding a bit high.
I posted how people measure their .25unit increments for as accurate as we can get.
Any thoughts? I use a magnifying glass. should I measure just a hair under the 0.5 or a hair before the 1 unit?

I’m not sure how to advise you in terms of your specific question about the line “above or below”, but I do recommend for precision, you can get a set of calipers.
You set them at the dose you want to give, Line the calipers arms up against the syringe and ignore the syringe lines.
It’s much more precise for each dose.
Once you get the hang of using them, which is very quick, it’s very easy to use.
I’ve been using them about a year and love using them. I feel like my dosing is much more exact at each dose.
I hope someone will come along and give you a more specific answer to your other question. Have a great day to you and Phoebe :cat:
 
There is a link to a brand of calipers in the post Elise linked. But you can get any brand you want, plenty available on line,. You want want one that displays digital, preferably also metric for smaller dosing, and has a locking mechanism to hold the calipers in place.
 
went to harbor freight and got the calipers. (Pittsburgh company)
My 1 unit line is 1.34 mm. so from my calculations (sure comfort insulin 3/10 syringe)
0.25u=.34mm
0.50u=.68mm
0.75u=1.02mm
1.0un=1.34mm
1.25u=1.68mm
1.50u=2.02mm
1.75u=2.36mm
2.0u=2.70mm

Anyone want to check my math? i have the calipers locked into position for my next insulin dose of .75unit

she seems to be trending downward before dinner. She kept going from bowl to bowl today nibbling on food where she found it.
evening pmps 233. .75u given. I doubled up her regular eating. weigh in yesterday was stable.
i think i will check her maybe a couple times tonight just for safety sake.
there is low carb food--at night. Dried or Raw rabbit and whatever is left over from dinner.
No high carb in house anymore.

Can't seem to enter data on my sheet from my phone. +5=211 better.
Any help on the phone making me only a view only on my sheet?

There is a bug in the Google Sheets app that causes this View Only issue every now and then. It resolves on its own. So just ignore it and try again after a while. You don't get when accessing the SS through a computer/laptop :-)
