Yesterday
Happy Memorial everybody!

I am very happy to confirm that the majic of LL worked again its trick on Ducia - yesterday I discussed the need to increase if no Green appears, and, voila - we had Greens! I wasn't even home for that but DH handled all well.

This AM is very expected (sadly) Yellow start and the weather is so-so grey-ish and too sleepy, not too good for decent numbers.

I kept the Fat 0.5U dose because of the 60s yesterday AM - was it right thing to do? It is her19th cycle on the dose, bouncings are regular with varying length.It is the lengthiest period we keep the same dose. I would not call the dose very successful but neither can I call it effective-less.

Do I keep the dose?

Wishing everyone happy sunny safe day!

Do I keep the dose?

I would say, yes, for now. You are getting some lovely green nadirs, although not consistently. If you were to go more than 6-8 cycles without seeing green, it might be time to try .75. That 63 doesn't leave you tons of wiggle room, so let's see what happens after she clears this bounce.

My thoughts exactly.

We have never been on the same dose for as long as now.
And I must admit more action were seen on the 0.75U dose than now but that 63 yesterday held my hand.
The current dose of Fat 0.5U is done with calipers - more like 0.63U approx.

The PM cycles look "inactive", I know it is bounce, but still - for how long is it wise to keep the same dose given her persistent bounces?

I don't mind to be patient at all if needed, I am just worrying to have the "insulin toxicity" to take permanent residency here.
(I read and re-read, and then translated in to my own tongue the Insulin Toxicity article but still I feel that I do not understand it well/completely, silly me.)

As long as she is getting into good numbers, you shouldn't have to worry about glucose toxicity, if that is what you are talking about. It's sustained high numbers, with no blues or greens, that causes that.

I know what an attraction (or distraction for me?!) you do have at home with beautiful Natasha and Boris - but please whenever you are online - check us out, the SS is up to date - and tell me what you think.
As I said earlier that "glucose toxicity" - - what a vague term that is!

 

[Tanya and Ducia]

OK, my little adorable silly girl still thinks that Yellow is good..whatever..I am going to join the neighbors for their bbq - homemade sausages gran-gran-grand-pa recipe and then get some nap with a full belly..Paradise...
Be online later on... see you there

I don't see any tests after PMPS. That flat yellow day could indicate an active cycle coming up. I really think you should hold the dose another day or two.

Regarding glucose toxicity, have you read this post: http://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/threads/feline-diabetes-glucose-toxicity-links.62961/?

Regarding glucose toxicity, have you read this post

I have..it must be beyond me completely - I read and the meaning is sort of escapes me...
I am taking the PMPS +2 in a few

I was hoping so but no, the PMPS +2 = 305...
There are so many Pinks lately and it worries me. Her clinical are fine- the appy, the 5Ps - except the purring - not so much lately...
I don't understand why is she having those Pinks...I don't know why but I thought the bounce from greens 3 cycle ago would be over.
