This is wonderful, Rochelle! Just keep monitoring the way you are, keep your SS up to date (please!) and post here with any questions you have.
i updated the spread sheet and I will thanks. I do have a question if he can be stabilized on food or has the random high day lanatas is a long acting twice a day insulin if he needs a random shot here and there what one would be best for him?This is wonderful, Rochelle!

You wouldn't be giving random shots. If her numbers trend up you would resume twice a day injections.
Keep feeding the low carb food and doing the routine BG testing. He's a diet controlled diabetic right now so you have to be strict in what you feed him.
whats a drop?
but what if he has like one random over 11?
Let's see how he does and not worry about one random test over 11. You are looking for trends.
So what should the test schedule be like ? Same ambg and pmbg ?
Yes, you can do that. However, if you get a blue number at AMBG, you won't be there to retest in three hours during the week.
Yes, if that works for your schedule. As Marje said, if the number is green, all is good. If you get a blue number, feed and retest in three hours. If the BG comes down, you know the pancreas is working and all is well. If the number does not come down, and you continue to get blue readings, post for advice. It is possible you might need to resume insulin at that point.
