1/17 Zyler AMPS 104 PMPS 85 +3 73

Hi everyone, still squeaking in these blues, should his dose be increased to try to help bring him down below 100 or is it just a waiting game to see if he’ll come down below 100 consistently?

HI Kelcie, Zyler is looking very good. What's his feeding/snack schedule?

I give 2.5-3oz for his PS feeding, then between +1.5-3 he gets the remaining 2-2.5oz

I'm wondering if a small no/low carb snack at +8 or +9 may bring the PSs down a bit since they're barely blue. It's usually done on a smaller dose though so I'd like some more experienced members to opine.

Usually that’s reserved for when the dose is tiny as in .25 and nearing remission I have been told by Wendy. @Wendy&Neko

The goal of the +9 ish snack is to kick start a pancreas that is almost fully healed, to produce it's own insulin to bring down the preshot numbers. The sign of a pancreas that is almost fully healed is a smaller dose, like 0.25 or 0.1 units. If you give a late snack on larger doses, you risk shortening the insulin duration and getting even higher preshots.

Thank you @tiffmaxee and @Wendy&Neko , I thought as much but now I've bookmarked this for future and ease of reference.

Thanks all! So keep Zyler at the dose he’s on until we see a week of green AMPS?
