Have not posted for sometime but spreadsheet is up to date. Lila has a pre shot of 11.5. She has never had a pre shot this low. Not sure if to carry on with injection which is due soon. ?
 
I'm to new to offer dosing advice. But the insulin you use is the same as mine. Over in the specific insulin boards the is a sticky for dealing with low test numbers. If I remember right you can wait an hour and test again to see if the numbers hit the right target before deciding if you want to give the full dose.
Perhaps that sticky would be a good refresher until someone with more knowledge than I have comes along?
 
You could do a reduced dose if you wont be around to test but it will probably be fine. Do test though.

Yes not too bad! 4.2 at +5.5 hours. So have given a little of her normal food. Wondering when to test next. She is fine, laying in the sun!

You've already started a curve with your tests so far. I suggest you finish it up by testing at +8 and +10. Looking good!
