Morning.
Long story short, River's AMPS was lower than expected, so we gave her some time to bounce back after she ate, then I gave her her regular insulin (I have posted about this in the Lantus ISG).
What is the best way to note this late dosing on my SS and with my +2 +4 etc. numbers?
 
You could do it in the notes section on the right of your SS or at "@ +14" right inside the cell where you entered what the dose is. I think I read on your L thread that you were two hours late, right?
 
The number you actually shoot is always the Pre-shot

So if your "usual" AMPS was 71 but you stalled two hours until she was 224, the 224 is the AMPS

You'd put all 3 tests in the AMPS cell (you'll have to color code it yourself)

You'd put 71 @ +12, 114@+13, 224@+14

Then your other + cells will still read the same......the + cells always correspond to the number of hours since the last shot......so if you shot at +14, the +1 would still be 1 hour after you actually shot

Your PMPS test will be 2 hours later than "usual", but still 12 hours from the AM shot so no special notation necessary
