Helena and Gandalf

Hi again!
Once again it has been a while since I was active here, been reading a lot of threads on here though. You learn so much from it, it´s amazing!
Gandalf has had a good week with a lot of blues and some greens. We are currently giving him 2.2 u as a standard. After todays number I assume he is gonna be quite low for the PM shot, like on 5/5 and 8/5. Earlier we have then been lowering his dose by 25 %, should we go even lower in dose or even try to skip the dose if he is around 10-11 mmol/l at PM?
I have been trying to read up on bouncing. When I look at his SS I would say that he is definitely bouncing, quite high when he hits green but also a bit when he hits blue. He also seems to clear his bounces very fast. Do any of you with experience have some better interpretation of his cycles and bouncing?
Also I read in some thread the other day that the kitty can have a late drop in their cycle if the dose is too high. We have seen these late-drop cylces a few times, do you think we should decrease the dose?
Else I think we will just keep going and hopefully he will eventually stop bouncing when he hits blue, and we can start decreasing the dose.
We have been able to test alot lately due to good scheduling at university, but next week is lab-week and we are not gonna be able to get midcycle test during the day every day.
From his SS, is there a dose you think is a safe dose to give when we are not home, but which will also not set back the progress we have made the last week?
Someone in my last thread predicted that a good dose for Gandalf would be 2.2 or 2.0 U, that is exaclty where we´re at. All you who share your knowledge and experiences with others on here are so amazing! Thank you!
