I think you can call a day with the testing (Or call it a night?)
Regarding the colors of the Spreadsheet screen - if the colors giving you headaches have you tried to reduce the brightness of your computer screen, make it really dull?

Hopefully someone will get back to you about AM shot and its timing.

I am off to bed in a couple of minutes. Good luck with tomorrow dose!

He goes in spurts. He finds something he likes, I buy a few. I think he will keep eating it and stock -up and bam! Cupboard full of stuff he won't eat.

I too have a pantry full of rejected food and treats. But someone on the board told me about PureBites freeze dried treats---chicken and duck, salmon. They carry it at PetSmart. Yum loves them. She won't do stuff for food in advance, but she expects the treat now after each test. Of course she's not a force feeding kitty. Good luck.
 
He's dropping his bg number while I wait to give him his am shot.

6.15 am = 344
7:11 am =341
His eaten his breakfast.

Edit: he ate his breakfast in between bg checks.

We all badly want to help you BUT we need that spreadsheet to see your kitty's history. The colours on the SS we use can be changed to be more pleasant to your eyes. The SS "lives" online and can be accessed on your smartphone. Once set up, all you need to do is enter BG test numbers. It's virtually effortless. You've had many offers of help to set it up - please take those kind people up on it. @Tanya and Ducia very kindly guided you through the lower than usual PS last night but we are very limited in what we can give as advice otherwise.

Please help us to help you.
 
Hi, just a few comments, I do get the idea of the problem you have trying to use different formats one for your vets and another for here, but the thing is the photo you posted is a little bit hard to read at least I couldn't rotate the photo so I have to look at it sided, also some of the numbers are really small so i couldn't read them.

You also mentioned you have some curves and other tests but you didn't posted those and that is very valuable information specially when you start shooting low, since based on his history you and the people that are trying to help you can set a course of action. For example is important to know if he is a diver, or if he has an early nadir or a late one and if this has happened before how he reacted.

Sounds like a lot I know but believe us all of this and more can be seen on the SS format and it is simple to maintain once you've set it up ( hard part is the first when you get all your old information in it ), maybe you could start from cero and start recording from now on

what are the numbers like?

That should have been +9 (not 10) he was 230
+11 257
+11.5 267

He started to go up between + 9 & 11

We'll see what he does tonight.

The vet thinks he may be intolerant to one if the inert ingredients and has a varied rate of insulin absorption.

I was hoping for his infection resolving because people around here say if the infection clears numbers go down.

So yesterday was like this:

05/25 Apple AMPS+9 230, +11 257, +11.5 267; PMPS ?, +2 189 - big snack, + 3.5 161, + 4.5 181 snack

Looks like very nice cycle with a lot of Blue numbers! I hope the rest of PM cycle went nicely and uneventful for you!

I am no vet but Apple definitely has a lot ABs to deal with - and antibiotics (AB) are know to raise the numbers.

I hope you both had restful night!

Not restful night,

He was stuffed with food and ff gravy and fed crunchies to raise his bg. Didn't know how far he would drop today and had to raise him to be safe.

I expected him to rocket up....nope.
