Beth, he seems to hit his nadir around +7/8 when it is obvious so he's a later nadir kitty at least for now. Some cats are like clockwork and others are all over the map. When Elmo is bouncing, it's not so clear but on the days he's hit blues and greens, it's more apparent. Chances are you'll see him start rising fairly soon.
I am loving seeing those greens. Thank you Elmo! :D
 
Thank you to you both , and Kel, for encouraging and instructing ..could not do it without you :bighug:❤️
 
Leaving it to Linda and Nan to field that question. But look at those lovely, healing greens.:D
Celebratory ice cream for Elmo's humans dinner.
Getting late. Off to make dinner. Pasta with tomatoes, spinach, arugula, basil, pancetta, and parmesan. Basically, once around the fridge. No ice cream, sadly.

How are his ears today? As Linda said, he's most likely going to start heading up pretty soon, and he's still very safe, but I'm tempted to get the +10 anyway. If his ears are still sore, though, maybe hold off...

Nope , not sore ....I got 33 gauge lancets and he is a good bleeder ...one reason I stick with the Relion Confirm...takes little to no blood . Down side is have yo order strips .

I'm so glad to hear that! It's amazing to watch them, when they feel much better. Those nasty ole high numbers don't make anyone feel good...enjoy his 'feel-good' time. He may bounce again - just ride it out. His body will adjust to those low numbers - right now by spiking his BG - but it'll eventually level down - for the most part. It seems like all these kitties tend to spike now and then...when they get too low. Try not to panic...but just test and expect the unexpected...It's possible you'll get to shoot your first green tonight. Are you ready?
 
Looks like somebody broke his bounce in style. :D Hence the later nadir too. Surfs up Elmo!

so he hasn't really had a lot of time to "get used to" high numbers. I could be wrong about this, and I also could be wrong about just how long it takes for a cat's body to decide that reds and blacks are normal.

Glucose toxicity can develop in as little as five days. And I observed it in my own bouncy girl
 
Opinion : my thread title is getting long( agsin) ....which numbers can I nix and still tell todays " story" ????
 
You've not shot any pre-shot that low before Beth. Do you have lots of strips, lancets and food selection? Chances are good Elmo is going to bounce and these questions are going to be for not but gotta ask in case he has something new up his sleeve!
 
Strips ..check Lancets ...check Food ... 14 MC and 20 HC ..... want to do what best for him ...not for me ...your thots ???
 
If you're ready for it, you could shoot. He's rising and will likely bounce (the only question is when he'll really get going with that). Having the dose on board will be helpful, and also will keep the depot stable.
 
Good luck. Fingers crossed.
