Yesterday https://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB...8-bounce-5-5-140-6-5-460.273709/#post-3041402

major bounce last night. 7.8 / 140 @ +5.5 then 25.6 / 461 @ + 6.5… just one hour later!

Wonder if the 140 was a bad strip. Not sure it's possible to bounce 300 points in an hour.

Wondering same. This morning, the strip didn’t register the blood initially, the glucometer kept blinking with the drop, so used the other side of the strip and got a reading

I guess a nice reading was maybe too good to be true lol

True or false reading, doesn't change how you dose. Next time you get a reading you are unsure about, test again. Double dips or shorted drops can provide wonky readings.

Yeah. I gave him 3.5U this morning since his Nadirs were still above 16.7mmol

I’m so over these pinks and reds… where are the yellow and blues from Jan 29 and 30th?!?!
Am I increasing the dose too fast? Even though it’s part of the TR protocol? Just thinking out loud since this is so frustrating lol

What are “shorted drops”? TIA

 

[Wendy&Neko]

By "shorted drops" I meant too small a blood drop for the meter to register.
