Good morning,

Here is yesterday:

In blues this am and hoping to slide down a bit...

 

[Diane Tyler's Mom GA]

Afternoon Jodey, nice to see those blue pre shots , I hope Eddie can slide down for you today

 

[carfurby (GA)]

Nice start. I hope Eddie slides down and surfs today.

@Wendy&Neko Hi Wendy is there anything you see here that needs adjustment?

 

[Wendy&Neko]

This dose has taken him to just above 100 more than once. Do you want his nadirs to be lower?

Not necessarily. I was just wondering if you saw anything in the 3 steps forward, 2 steps back chacha of any consequence (spreadsheet) now that we have a sense of his responses.

 

[Wendy&Neko]

Just follow the nadirs, where you want them to be and what that tells you to do with the dose.

Yes, I see but give the Cabergoline chacha, the nadirs seem inconsistent. Like I might say, 15u is currently showing to be not enough and I should increase even though doing so will possibly/probably result in another decrease. Or I could say, that the current numbers just indicate a plateau before another dive that would require a decrease, not an increase.
So. you see what I mean but the chacha metaphor?

So to get a complete picture of how a dose is working, you look at the composite of multiple cycles. Look at it like you’re drawing a box around the data for a certain number of days, then evaluating what’s in the box.

How many days are in your box?

If your target is still to nadir between 100 and 149 (on an AT meter) and hold the dose if that condition is met, then at least in the box I draw, there’s no question that you’ve met that criteria (in the last 3 days alone, I see a 124 and a 104, with a big snack at the 104 to blunt an anticipated continued drop).

If we know that a bounce can last multiple cycles then the box needs to be bigger than the length of likely bounces.

What are you seeing in the data that’s making you think an increase might be warranted? Is it the yellows and pinks that are drawing your attention? I always had to remind myself to ignore those colors and focus on the blues and greens, as when they’re present, those are what dictate dosing.

Hi JL, to put it in the simplest terms, the only reason I'm having questions is to do with Cabergoline being added to the mix. The effects are less predictable than pre-Cabergoline days.
