Looking okay now. In the blue zone with 5.8 +5. Is he safe now? Do I need to keep testing?

It's been 1 hr since any sugar or food.
Yes I was thinking off waiting at least another 1/2 hr. He's snoozing on my lap now. At least someones sleeping...Can you stay up another 1/2 hour for one more test? He should be good, but one more test with the same or a rising number will let you sleep (what little you have left) without worrying.

Will do. He has his shot at 7.30 so I will test at 7.00 and post thread straight away. I normally feed about 5 mins before shot and shoot during feed or when he's nearly finished. I have to leave straight after his shot so won't be around to monitor. I will be dropping the dog back home a couple of hours later so can get +2 reading which will be good.LOL As a parent to an FD kitty, sleep can sometimes be very scarce.
Just to follow up for your morning...which is already going to be hectic. Try to post about 1/2 hour before shot time..once you have a preshot reading...so there is time for whoever is available to go over the information in order to give good suggestions on what to do for the morning shot dose.

Thanks. Still slowly rising numbers. He's on 7.6 +5.5. I think I will leave him now. His poor ears must be so sore from all the testing. I have also learned a big lesson tonight. ALWAYS pre shot test. Thank you again for your help.That is great. Once a safe dose if decided, getting a +2 will be helpful. With the low numbers and how hard it was to get Wilson back up it is very possible that you may have a very high number for AMPS. However, because of how low he went, how hard it was to bring him up and the recent food change, a reduced dose ( how much to be decided) is in order no matter how high the preshot is. I will try to be around when you post to add in my 2 cents worth,![]()
