3/18 Morris AMPS 526; PMPS 425; +2 376 bouncing? dosecrease?

//yesterday: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=9439

Looking at the nice falling numbers from last night, combined with me opening a new cartridge of insulin last night, it really appears to me that Morris is bouncing. I know I haven't been able to test him at just the right time to see how low he is going, but it really appears to me that he is going low. Do you think I should try taking him back down to 1.50u & see if we can get rid of this ugly black??? Would appreciate any thoughts/feedback.

WCR: He seems to be doing quite well. I was watching him grooming himself for quite awhile last night & it made me shudder as I thought back to that nasty fur ball he had a couple weeks ago!!!! All P's seem to be in fine working order.

If you think he may be dropping low, is there any way you can set an alarm for a quick late nite test?
Honestly, what you might catch could give you the answers, and help with the dosing suggestions.


I'm glad to hear his WCR is very good!

Not usually during the work week & definately not during this work week! I take meds to make me sleep almost every night & definately need to take them on work-nights as I need to be well rested for work! This week, it has been even worse since I had that 'bug' or whatever on Sun/Mon. I am feeling a bit better now, but whatever hit me made me sleep extra well even without taking my pills!

I can try doing that alarm business on weekends.....just not sure if I should let him continue bouncing like this until then.

since the blacks seem to come 1 cycle after a yellow PS, I would suggest getting extra tests on your next yellow PS to see if you can catch the low.

No yellow here tonight :YMSIGH: I am feeling a little frustrated right now.....pretty sure he's bouncing, can't get in many extra checks for another couple days (Sat), part of me thinks I should lower him & part of me thinks I shouldn't lower him quite yet. I did give another 1.75u this evening. Will check on him again in a couple of hours.

Still coming down......I wonder what color he will be in the morning!!!!!
