    4th night in a row. Today AMPS was 259, gave 0.5u. I did a +5 204. Last night I made sure I pulled the kibble up so she wouldn't eat. I don't understand why shes low in the pm but high in the am? I've stalled again w/ no food for 30 mins, retested BG:165. My vet got back to me and told me to go with 1u bid, then do a curve. I am racking my brain as to why these numbers the way they are. I know I shouldn't be adjusting dosages according to the PS. So should I just go with 1u and watch?

    @JanetNJ

    I see you have been speaking with them in you other 3 posts

    Thank you ladies

    Becca if you ever want to tag someone for advice that you have
    spoken to already
    After you are down writing your post
    Ship a line and do this
    @Becca84

    When you type the first few letters of the persons name you want to
    tag a drop down of names will appear , when you see it just tap on their name
    After you hit post you should see the persons name in blue :cat:

    Becca when you stall you would put that number in the same cell (spot) under that
    159 you have in the PMPS cell. Put the 165 under it and put stall 165.
    Someone might not see it in the remarks column where you put it

    Thank you! I guess no one is on. I've went ahead and given her 0.25u anyway. Thanks!

    I’m not a vetsulin user so can’t advise on the dose but I’m glad you didn’t go with the 1 unit.
    It looks like Candi might be bouncing at AMPS from the lows in the pm cycle..
    I would get a +2

    With a drop from 165 to 115 at +2 I would feed some low carb food now and get a +3

    I have to duck out for an hour, so may not be around for the +4. If it’s still dropping, I’d get another test in.
