I love seeing this! See how last night's cycle was flat yellow. That is often the sign that in the next cycle or so you will see a drop. Come on Rudy and work the new dose and stay in the blues for a bit. :cool:

I was shocked when the meter read 193 this morning. Let's hope it sticks around. He looks nice in blue. :cool:

Today was Rudy's best day of numbers yet. Very proud of my boy. :D

I would love for him to stay in this range, but I don't want to push him too low. I know the SLGS info says I can shoot anything above a 90.

Do I go for it with the full 5 units at his PM shot? Or do I give him a short dose? I'll be home to monitor. I have MC/HC food, syrup and plenty of test strips.

I just need a little extra advice/encouragement to shoot him in the low 100s. He's due for food and insulin in under 2 hours. Thank you. :)
 
Get another test at +11 and post. Rudy hasn't earned a reduction and as long as you can monitor and have plenty of supplies (HC food and strips) I would hold the dose. You want him to keep getting these great numbers!

Let's see what others say and what the +11 reading is.

Last time he was blue at the preshot - I got all flustered and gave the chicken dose. I'll get a +11 (40 minutes from now) and see where he is. Thanks for the speedy reply.
 
I took down the ?/dose question from my post title. I'll put it back up after I get the +11.
 
Ok. I did it. Shot 5 units with a PMPS of 146. Hypo kit is ready. Let's hope he surfs safely and I don't need to use it. Paws crossed for us.

And I ran out of room on the post title line, so here are his daytime #s:

4/30 Rudy AMPS 193, +1.5 140, +2.5 110, +3.5 103, +4.5 92, +5.5 99, +7 113, +9.5 112, +11 150
 
Yeah!!!! What a great day and congrats on shooting the whole dose tonight. We shoot low to stay low with Lantus but that said, it first few times we do it , it is scary. +1 looking really good and wonderful that this is when you can monitor. :D:cool::cat::)
 
Getting a little scary now...

62 at +2.5. Gave another spoon of MC and 3 Temptations. Will check again shortly.

Trust me - they are addictive :D.

How is Rudy doing? You doin ok?

Up to 76 at +3.5. Atta boy, Rudy.

They are addictive. Just so many of them today. I can't believe it. I guess the 5 units agrees with him.

We're doing ok. He's getting annoyed because I keep poking him, so he can't get a full nap in. Too bad, buddy. I'm doing ok. I was prepared, but nervous about shooting a blue. I did it though. Rudy helped. :cool:
 
Off to bed. Keep doing what you are doing.

Just a tip but you may want to make notes in your comments section of the SS on what and when you fed for future reference. Now you know what works and how long it takes to get him up. :bighug:

Remember 2 hours with no food or syrup influence to make sure his numbers are staying up before you quit testing.

He was 67 at +4. One more fat spoon of MC and a dot of syrup. Hopefully, that'll bring him up and keep him there.

And I also have his numbers and foods written in a notebook, so I'm on it.

Thanks for the help and encouragement tonight. :cat:
 
You've got this. You've done all the right things already. Now it's just keep going on the testing and more carbs if needed. I'll check in on you again in a few minutes to make sure he's heading in the right direction at your next test.

Thank you. So glad someone is here. Took the 911 off my post. He was 64 just now. Gave another spoon of HC. Will check bg again in 15.
