Phew! Saved by a couple of minutes?
He got snacks at +1, +2 and +4, post testing (didn't check at +1 though).

I wonder when Shen's nadir in the PM cycle is. Feels like I missed it on both days post reducing his dose to 1U.

4th cycle on this dose, so it should not be the higher depot. Looking good!

He's bouncing at night from the greens in the day so don't worry about getting a nadir. In fact, if he is higher at +2 or +3, just call it a night. You will burn out testing all day and night. If his PM cycles were like the last 3-4 AM cycles, it make sense to stay up. Not otherwise.

Good to see that you've moved shot time to a more earthly hour and that his poop is normal

68 at +5, after another small snack at +4.5.

I'm usually awake till 2-3 am (+5/6) so I end up testing at those times too for fear of missing a sudden drop, knowing how nothing is predictable. For all I know, he might as well have dropped some time without me knowing before ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
If I'm too sleepy, I feed him a decent-sized snack before going to bed.
I would ideally like to reduce testing too much during the AM cycle too, but his numbers don't allow that comfort :')

Given his numbers, I would reduce test in cycles like the PM tests if reducing the number of pokes is your goal.
