Is this the high before the bounce breaks or will he bounce longer from his first lime? o_O

Exactly what I was thinking. I feel like the dose reduction might have been a step backward. I thought his numbers were looking so good besides that one 47. How long till I decide about dose, 6 cycles right?

+2 in 10 min
 
His numbers are still good. Staying below 150 even when bouncing! Yes, I would give it 6 cycles - though I suspect he's going to start working the dose sooner.
 
But wait, is this still the previous 2.5u depot at work?

Also is the +2 a big enough drop from PMPS where I should be worrying about slowing him down?
15 min until +3

I got a bit of sleep. Lol.
Still haven’t determined what exactly is a big drop from PS to +2 but I guess it’s all relative to current situation and numbers.

I remember you saying that with a big drop into the green at +2 that I should slow him down with HC but I think that was into the 80s and I can’t remember what day :banghead:

should I have slowed him down at +2?

and as far as late nadir tonight I am aiming for next test at what +5 and expecting nadir of like +6 or 7?

sorry for all the ?s, I know it’s a busy board tonight w Henry.

That was a big drop at +2 and I would have said slow him down with higher carbs but it looks like he didn't need it.

I wonder if he will pick up speed around +4/+5 like he did yesterday morning. How about a +4.5? Yeah, maybe a nadir at +7 or even later. I am also still trying to figure him out. He is a new animal these days. :-)

Ok yes I thought it was a big drop too so my instincts are getting better! That’s why I got a +3.
Im guessing I would have slowed him down with like a tsp of 10 or 12 since +2 was in 90s.
—oh you said higher carbs nm

4.5 sounds good and +7 nadir is quite late but I can do it. I arranged for my wife to feed/shoot in the AM so I can sleep in.

New animal indeed, thankfully no more scarf and barf today, think it was a one off.

Yes. 10-12% is what I would have suggested. That is higher in carbs than his usual food. The % of higher carbs you feed also depends on when in the cycle, how low he has dropped etc. If he had dropped to the 60s at +2, you'd need 15-16%. Though we are still trying to establish how carb sensitive he is.

Excellent. It's great when you have company/support on this rollercoaster!

It's look like a repeat of the AM cycle of 7/24. Did he get food then around +7/+8?

He would have got a freeze dried treat or two at +8 with the test but that’s it.

He was similarly flat on the 24th at 4,5,6. As tonight’s 2,3,4.

So what’s your reasoning behind him probably not going lower from here when we were expecting a later nadir around +7? Trying to learn your ways of wisdom :)

He is headed up tonight so I don't expect him to head lower. Even if he does, he will give you an AMPS between 70 and 90 which you can shoot. Don't think it is worth staying up and getting a later test at +7 or +8. If he had been lower or even flat at +4.5, I might have thought it was.
