I have HC food, 150 unopened strips and can monitor since I did get some sleep. I had just done two shot at .5 should I use that? Or try to do .25? THANKS
Thanks. I will shoot .25 if Ben is over 50 for the AM shot
Yes, this was fine.
Didn't understand. Do you mean that a poke has caused a lump to form?
I read about many problems with the lines. When I started using syringes I went through them. I sorted them by ones with lines closest to the end and not as close. I used the not so close to dose .75 closest to dose .5 and now .25 Now I'll just use the ones that are the most accurate. I push plunger in n out making sure it's not sticking, push to end holding there then draw a larger amount. I flick the bubble to top then turn plunger to mark (or inbetween) I need. .25 is just so small, like 1 drop. Believe it or not I am a scientist. Animal and plant biology before my brain injury. I have worked in labs.
It looks that way. A small lump has formed in the ear where I poke for blood. Thinking it could be infection. I see bruising now too. I'll take him in for a vet check.
If you poke the marginal vein there can be some bruising but it goes away in a few days. Just avoid poking that area for the next few days?
Been using left ear as right wouldn't bleed enough. I know how to get blood better now I'll change ears. Using a pill bottle with warm water. Also, temperatures are now over 100F his ears are not cold now.
Ordering Boiron - Ledum Palustre 30C as recommended from Amaz today for $10 I'll try this and let you know how it works.
+10 is 70 He is doing great.
Great! Let's see the AMPS.
Yes but something tells me you will be down to .10 by tomorrow night.
Even a skip can't be ruled out!
Looks like this is the time when MoM gets little sleepEven a skip can't be ruled out!
I will shoot .25 if AMPS is over 50, then I will do a +1 and +2 to see how low can we go 
I have HC food and plenty of test strips
WoW .1 would be about 1 drop. I will try when the time comes
I guess you've seen this sticky? Insulin Care & Syringe Info: Proper Handling, Drawing, Fine Dosing
Thanks it's good to have the reference here. I just went through another pack of 10 and only 3 are precise.
Yeah. That's why a lot of us use callipers for dosing. Ben looks like he will be done with this dance soon though. Touch wood!
I watched the video and was considering calipers. But, now I don't think I'll need it. I had an old ring style lighted magnifier that I got rid of just 2 years ago. Sure wish I had it now.
I use the zoom feature on my smartphone camera. Much better than a magnifier.I watched the video and was considering calipers. But, now I don't think I'll need it. I had an old ring style lighted magnifier that I got rid of just 2 years ago. Sure wish I had it now.
My close up vision is good and better with reading glasses. I just shine a bright light and put on my readers
I used a small amount of diluted betadine (1 betadine to 4 water) and the lump is now gone
Great!
