Yesterday: https://felinediabetes.com/FDMB/threads/1-8-tessa-amps-101-pmps-93-possible-furshot-in-am.272768/

I'm hoping that she didn't have that fur shot after all. I know it can take a couple days to show its effects though so we're not quite out of the woods yet.

We had a false low alarm just before her AMPS. It said 53 and dropping which is usually what happens when she's laying on the sensor but my husband said she was standing up on the cat tree. The PM +10 reading from overnight is suspiciously low too. This has me a bit concerned that the sensor is going to fail like the last one.

I'm really hoping it can hold on for longer, I'm trying to give Tessa a break from the extra manual tests because they've been stressing her out but we'll do what we have to if the sensor fails.

Hope Tessa surfs safely today

Another false alarm. Libre said 53, manual test said 76! UGH. I don't know why these sensors are suddenly all going bad around the 1 week mark!

So I think that the sensor is just struggling to accurately read low numbers because now that her numbers have increased a bit, it seems far more accurate. I manually tested her at +8 and the ReliOn said 85 and the Libre said 76. I scanned her again 4 minutes later the Libre said 83. Prior to this, the graph just shows a long streak of readings around 53-56.

Spoke too soon, she just had a low glucose alarm. I know she didn't drop that fast so I just turned off bluetooth again to avoid false alarms.

Good to see her working the reduction.
Is she getting more comfortable with ear pricks?

Yeah, she's getting used to it but sometimes gets a bit feisty with me.
