She's been very hungry and eaten a lot. I thought this would happen!! Commenced high carb - it's not out first rodeo!! Yikes

I would rub some honey in her gums and test in 20minutes. Don’t feed too much as we may need her to eat later in the cycle.

She inhaled one small tin and is only at 3.6 15 minutes later. Just covered gums in honey. She's not 100% but too busy kicking honey off every thing. Have set timer for 20 minutes.
I knew she'd pull a midnight stunt on me lol!
 
It takes 20 and snootiness 30 minutes for food to bring the bg up. I’ll check back. You can go to sleep Bron. The honey should bring it up faster but leaves faster so you can always add a little honey to food too.

+20 minutes and at 4.1
She's settled down in her favourite cardboard box.
What do I do now?
 
Was it 4.6 or 4.1? I use the US which said 74 which is good and lc would work. Either way lc is good if over 70.

She was 70 now has held 83 for an hour.
I'm at 2.20am and her AM shot is at 8am - just over 5 hours away so do I give insulin at 70+ or not
 
What is IC?
She's now in the blue at 104. I did put honey on her gums. 104 is her +7 number so she's climbing now.
It's 3am here and 5 hours til AMPS and her breakfast so will sign off now as I need medication and side effect is sleep. I'll just set several alarms in horrendous ring tones so i will wake up at 8. I will see what she is as she was lower than usual today which is why I ran numbers tonight.

Thanks for your help.

Also are you following TR or SLGS? It needs to be added to your ss. M assuming SLGS so needs to be over 90 to shoot. WithTR it’s over 50.

Om on SLGS and was told told when I first posted to drop from 1.5U to 1.25U ar her AM shot which is in 5 hours. Will make sure her number is over 90 and hold if it isn't.
 
Low carb. The reason why you want to go low carb is to make sure the bg stays up without high carbs or honey. Sometimes it goes back down. Yes you decrease to 1.25 any time the bg is under 90. If it’s around 90 I’d stall and test again in 20-30 minutes to see if it goes up or down. With all the honey I suspect she will bounce but there’s no guarantee. She’s a cat after all and they are unpredictable.
 
Omg this is really weird bcoz unknowingly I was feeding low carb food to bring her back up but I got told to use high carb! The low carb food actually worked better and quicker!!! Thanks I'll remember that next time and get more of the one she really ❤️ s

This morning she is AMPS 234 (13 world numbr) but she does that occasionally anyway! I think we shall both be sleeping a lot today lol.

Thanks again especially this last bit!!!
