Re: 12/7 George AMPS 271 +7.5 100
George looks like he is doing beautiful on that .75u, and really that 271 isn't bad for a preshot after a skipped shot last night...Just hang tight with the dose and let him settle on it for a few days. 100 right around his nadir is just purrfect cat_pet_icon

First, George dropped to 20 on double the dose you're giving. I think you would have a much better sense of control and of what's going on if you could get a test or two during the PM cycle. I know you've been skipping the shot. At some point, you're going to need to shoot and get those follow up tests. In the meantime, even if you skip, getting a test or two so you know when the numbers start to rise can be very good information.
As for now, if you're not comfortable with shooting 0.75u, then reduce the dose so you can shoot twice a day. How about dropping George's dose to 0.5u?
Also, if you're going to stall a shot to see where the numbers are heading, you don't want to feed. If you give George his dinner, you won't know whether the rise in numbers are due to food or because his numbers are coming up on their own.

Thank you. I did not know not to feed him so I will remember that. 40 minutes later he had risen to 145 but you're right that I don't know if he would have risen without the food. I was trying to hold the course at .75 but will switch to .5 tomorrow or Sunday. I would like to be able to regulate him.

This is a post that Libby wrote about how to deal with low pre-shot numbers. It's a great post that walks you through your options. It's now been incorporated into the sticky on Shooting & Handling Low Numbers at the top of the TR board. You might want to bookmark or print out that sticky note since it can come in very handy.
