Have you decided on what dosing approach you want to use with Garfie? You are certainly testing enough to use Tight Regulation.

Part of why I'm asking is that you are reducing the dose when your pre-shot number is below 150. While that's consistent with SLGS, even with that approach, there's no reason to not shoot lower numbers. It's likely that shooting lower numbers will help to flatten out Garfie's curve. Every time you give a reduced dose, it has an effect on the depot and you're playing catch-up for a few days.

Generally, when you make a dose change, the depot needs up to 6 cycles to stablize. Since you shaved the dose due to a low AMPS yesterday, you need a few cycles to see where this dose actually takes Garfie's numbers. I'm thinking that if you could shoot 0.25u consistently, you'd be seeing a lot more blue. I don't think the issue is whether to raise the dose. I think you need a run of at least 3 days where the dose is consistent before you can decide whether to increase.

I usually try to stay at .25 but if he's low and I have to go to work I give him .10 little better then nothing. I have to get myself used to shooting low numbers this is all new and not sure on shooting low numbers. I am doing slgs. I usually test more at night cause sometimes I can't get away from work to run and do a test. Will keep him where he's at and make myself shoot lower numbers yes I have a hypo kit. Just a paranoid mommy.
