Re: 1/9 Harley AMPS 136

Harley and Pattie"]Harley is way low but coming up. +4.5 93 and now 136. I am nervous about shooting the full 8.5 so I may delay his AM shot until he gets up a bit more.

Morning Harley and Pattie. Nice numbers, but I don't blame you for being nervous to shoot now. I would delay, too, if it were me. Hopefully more will be on soon. I'm one of the insomniacs here and about to take a rest.
 
Re: 1/9 Harley AMPS 136

Great amps for Harley but I agree with you about the stalling since I did the same thing for Do Lou this morning
 
Re: 1/9 Harley 136, +1 206 No shot yet

I have waited 1 hour for Harley's shot and he is still only 206. I am not going to shoot and will test again in 30 minutes to see where we are. I am excited about this number but need advice on what to shoot. He is up to 8.5 units.

Hi Pattie

no shooting help from me, but would ask, if you are home to monitor today? Has he had food at all?

Pattie --

You've shot greens on a higher dose. This is a rising number. Unless you've fed Harley, I think you're fine to shoot but you need to be comfortable with what you're doing.
 
Re: 1/9 Harley 136, +1 206 No shot yet

I did give him about a tsp of raw - he was crying about the time he usually gets fed. I am home today after 10am church. Since I know he is going up, I will shoot and test prior to leaving the house and when I return after.

IMHO he has risen 70 points in the past 1 hour. If you're going to be home today, I would shoot now.
 
Just gave Harley his shot - 8.5u. I second guess myself about when to shoot when it looks like the numbers are low and the dose is high. I don't want him to hypo on me, but you're right - I have shot on lower numbers. He is happy to get something to eat. Thanks everyone.

I think, shooting and getting lots of tests in will help you to be a little less nervous if something simuliar ever happens, on a day when you have to leave for work.
Have a good day.
 
You can always leave food for Harley if you have to be out of the house for a bit. And you can always leave higher carb food. Remember, the dose is irrelevant -- it's what Harley needs. If he was getting 1.0u, the effect would be the same. The larger dose is more a mental thing on your part.

I have been thinking about this ever since I read your reply. That is so true - I look at a low number (that I consider low) and panic about the high dose. But the effect is the same and I have to realize that if the numbers are going up - I need to shoot. The 8.5u is a mental stumbling block for me.
