Help! Bgs staying high and spiking

[Bobbie And Bubba]

Bobbie thank you for taking the time to calculate the calories. Now how would I figure how many ounces of the raw chicken would make up 313 calories? Thank you!

Good question. Since I feed Bubba Fancy Feast I easily know the calorie count. Do you just buy the chicken at the grocery store or are you buying from a company? If the latter, maybe they can tell you the count, otherwise, maybe go online and research the calories in the amount of ounces you give per meal and figure out how much you would need to give per day to reach the 313. Or maybe post is Health with a ? mark preface and have your thread title be something about Raw diet and Calories. There are some peep here that do raw diets, I just can't think of any names to give you.

Deb,

Why don't you send Marje a private conversation? She was on yesterday and wanted to know what numbers you wanted her to put on the spreadsheet. I gave her all your info so she has the spreadsheet ready. The one in your signature is throne I put in but you can't see it so she'll take that one out and put a new one on.

Click on @Marje and Gracie. When her picture comes up, click on Start a conversation and tell her you are online and she'll get back to you. I'd suggest you start with the most recent few days. Before then you were shooting more than twice daily and getting all kinds of weird data


I am sorry I have not been much help. My DH went into the hospital on Friday and I have been meeting myself coming and going.

Meanwhile, you could tell us what dose you decided on and what numbers you have gotten yesterday and today. Like this:

AMPS. (Number before the shot and food in am). Dose (how many units)
Then any other tests you get during the day
PMPS (number before shot and food in pm)

I have back as of March 24th. I went to google drive and the spreadsheet there lets me imput but when I go to my signature there is nothing.
I must be doing something wrong.

I'm sorry, Deb. I got involved in work and forgot to check back here. Always good to tag me or PM me if you need me.

I can populate the dates. I'm not sure how you have two SSs unless you created one. The one I posted to your signature was the one Sue did for you. I would suggest you go to your email associated with Google and look for an email from Google that indicates I am sharing a document with you and then click on that link. That will let you see which one you should be using. I've also auto filled the dates for you.

Pls PM me and let me know if you can fill it in and see it because we are seeing it on FDMB in your signature.

Great idea. I purchase my chicken at whole foods air chilled organic antibiotic hormone free prepackage thigh

watch him and just being off steriods I was unsure how the insulin would affect him at GB reading 231

Then any other tests you get during the day
PMPS (number before shot and food in pm)

I'm sorry to hear about your DH !!!! My thoughts and prayers are with you!!!!
April 3rd AMPS 231 1.5 units GB test 3:00 pm 335 PMPS 355 2 units I had to travel and couldn't watch him and was not sure how the insulin would affect him at GB reading 231.
April 4th @6:00am GB test 292 AMPS 358 2 units

YAY!! It’s all sorted out on the SS.

Sue... many prayers for your DH.

It's interesting that he seems to be kind of hovering in the higher ranges throughout the day. You said he is on Pred, correct? That could be causing some of the higher numbers. I think, with the limited data we have, it would be good to see a couple of cycles of sticking to a dose to see what happens (obviously only if he is high enough to shoot). It might be that he needs a few days of consistency to settle into a dose and then he'll start to give good numbers. There's a lot of different reaons his numbers could be where they are...more data and then some experimentation will help us figure out what he needs. What do you think?

Having your SS set up and ready for us to see is a huge help though! Thanks, Marje!

Sue, sending good thoughts for you and your DH.
