Interesting that Susie did not seem to suffer any ill effects after her missed shot at PMPS on 3/20. Her AMPS were pretty low (for her) this morning so might see a blue. Unfortunately, I have to leave the house around 11:15 to get my first COVID shot and might miss the +6 test. I'll have to fed her before I go and test her when I return. Last day at 1.5 units. Will bump it up to 1.75 tomorrow morning.

The 248 I saw this morning at +3 - is this an example of a "bounce"? She was at 227 AMPS. Would I see something like this as a result of her missed shot two days ago or maybe she went lower last night than normal?

I hope Susie slides down and surfs safely while you're out.

Thanks, Carla. I won't be gone long this morning. Wednesday morning I am going out for a dental checkup/work and might be gone a lot longer (3 hours?). Hope she will be okay.

It is nice to see someone else following the Lantus SLGS protocol. It helps me to understand better how it works.

I just wanted to point out I don't take reductions unless she is 60 or below. Normal SLGS is reductions below 90. I found she didn't hold reductions well and modified it. I have plenty of tests to know what she does and can usually see patterns.

Bounces are usually much higher numbers. The 248 could just be meter variance, or a food bump. Good luck with the shot!

I understand, Carla. You have been doing this a long time and know what your kitty is going to do. I will follow SLRS protocol.

Thanks, Melissa. At this point I think I had one more blue number when I was at 1.25 units than I have been at 1.5. Hope 1.75 will bring some improvement.
