? 9/15 Taishi - We're back! Dose thoughts?

Hi friends!

We've been out of town for the couple days for my husband's medical procedure, but we're back. Taishi did wonderful with our cat sitter and the autofeeder. Our cat sitter went above and beyond and came by in the early afternoon both days to make sure Taishi had food AND to get an extra BG reading!

We started Taishi on his "vacation dose" (I hate calling it that, since this was definitely NOT a vacation... in fact, I need one now haha) on 9/11 with the PM shot. His numbers have not been nearly as high as I expected, but it's also impossible to compare to the numbers he previously had on 1.75U, because we were using the AlphaTrak back then.

I'm guessing that, since we've still seen some lowish blue numbers, we should maybe try 2U in the morning and go from there? I really liked his numbers on 2.5, but not sure if it's a good idea to make that huge of a jump. Thoughts welcome

It's great that it worked out so well. Since this was a "vacation" dose (sorry) and not an earned reduction, you don't have to go back up in multiples of 0.25U. You can go back to his last good dose which was 2.5U.

I would definitely go back to 2.25U right away. If you want to increase in 0.25U installments, don't hold each dose too long unless you see green.

I was hoping we could increase a bit quicker! We'll start with 2.25U in the morning here and I'll make a thread for him then. Thank you so much <3
