If anyone sees this - Eleanor is down to 85 at +6. Yes I am feeding her.
I fully realize I have been increasing her dose using TR, I have also stated that I agreed to do TR because her numbers were so high and once she started getting lower BG I would go back to SLGS.
So I am reducing if she drops below 90, which she has now. No way am I letting her drop to 40 before I reduce.
Sooooo, I guess I reduce by .50 since I raised her by .50. Correct??
I'm sorry, I'm sick, I can't think and I need help.
 
TR is reduced with a drop below 50, three times with a long term diabetic or 1 time under 40. I always say right or wrong, you must do what you're comfortable with. This seems to be a break-through for Eleanor so if it were me I'd hold the dose. However, if you're not comfortable I might try to reduce just by .25 units. This is just my opinion, not advise.
 
I can try that, maybe that would work. I just don't want to mess her up. I don't know.
Thank you very much Karen.
Eleanor will be fine Julie. Do the best you can and take care of yourself too. You're so close to where I live but at the same time too far some days with me taking care of Doodles. :bighug::bighug: I'd give the 5.25 a try if you're up to it.
 
You can do SLGS and modify the number you get to take a reduction. I did that with Furball. She didn't hold reductions at 90. I chose 50, but since you're not comfortable with lower numbers you could try 70 or 80. If you decide to do this, please make a note in your signature line so those giving dosing advice will know.
