Buddy's SS up and going 6th part about dosing

[Teresa & KitKat]

@Kris & Teasel, I don't know what the @ sign means on FDMB, except for I know someone did it to get some body's attention. I have not heard from you for a while. Is everything alright. Buddy so far has not made any big changes. Would like your opinion on what needs to be done next. I know you are busy with Lantus these days, I did not want to bother you.

Hi Teresa,

You use the @ in front of someone's screen name when you want to tag them - ie., they get an alert in the upper right corner of this screen that someone is trying to contact them.

I'm fine - thanks for asking. Just spending less time at my desk in front of the computer because it bothers my back. I check Buddy's SS regularly. Just did so now. I suggest you give 2.4 u tonight and go to 2.6 u tomorrow AM, numbers permitting. How is Buddy feeling?

He seems to be doing alright, at this time. I was looking at his SS and I noticed at 2.50U that he had several greens and was surprised that he did not have any at 2.4 U. Maybe doses change from time to time. Having back problems is a bad thing. Buddy and I hope your back starts feeling better soon. When ever you see something on Buddy's SS that needs attention or needs to be changed let me know. I respect your guidance. In the morning AM numbers permitting I will give 2.6u. How is Teasel doing on Lantus and several days past his dive.

Yes, the dose needs do change over time, Teresa. That's something that takes all of us time to learn and become resigned to. Testing is the tool for coping with it.

Teasel is being his bouncy self on Lantus and it could be frustrating if I let it. He has many more blues and some green occasionally so I'm happy with that. Overall he feels better too. Thanks for asking.

Hi Teresa,

Don't worry - the red this AM is just a bounce. I like the blue from last night. Just the drop down might have triggered the bounce you see this morning. Keep doing what you're doing.

I suggest you start another new thread. This one is very long. A new one at least once a week is a good idea.

I will start a new thread. Thank you for your knowledge. I believe that Buddy thinks when I take a reading he is supposed to eat. As soon as I finish taking a reading, Buddy will go to his food bowl and start crying and most of the time I do give him something to eat. He is now back to eating FF classic and YA, I think they both are low in carbs

If he associates the pokes with a food reward, so much the better, Teresa!.

I thought that might be the reason why his numbers are not moving much. I hope that is not the reason because when he starts crying, I cannot turn him down.

If his food is low carb it should be OK.
