I know I need to be getting more PM tests in, but he gets his shot at 10pm and I'm rarely awake past midnight

I either need to change his dose time or set some alarms to test at night but what are the best times to test him?

I need to do another curve and I'm trying to plan.

thank you!
 
From the data on your SS, I would guess his onset is around +2 and his nadir around +6. If you can move his shot time up a bit, you could get a +2 or +3 every night before bed and if that's signficanltly lower, set an alarm for +6.

It looks like he could use an increase to 1U. I will tag @JanetNJ to confirm that.
 
Thank you!

I assumed he would be increasing after the curve, I'm doing the curve tomorrow so would be increasing Thursday.

If I moved his shot time to 9.30 would that be sufficient? I would be able to get a test in 2 1/2 hours after his shot

If move it up too much further I run the risk of no one being home when he should be getting it.

Numbers aren't bad but I agree go to 1 unit. Move the test times if earlier is more convenient.
 
I don't use Prozinc so I can't speak to timing & curves. But I do set alarms on my phone every time I plan to test. At first I would plan to test at certain times during the day and would totally forget. Now it's just easier to set an alarm on my phone every day based on what my plan is for the day (am I trying to do a full curve or just checking as needed). I've never tried a curve at night.
 
I will up him tomorrow morning then :)

I just wasn't sure if there were optimal times for testing I would never miss AMPS or PMPS but wasn't sure if a +5 would give better data then a +8 if its a day I can only manage to test once during the day

I may be over thinking things.. it tends to be my go to lol
