This is funny, we had 9 cycles of poor numbers after I did two reductions in a short period of time. Then a couple of days ago I was threating an increase planned for last night because I was confident she wasn't bouncing and it was just too low of a dose. But the great community here told me to just chill. Low and behold... greens came back and they (@Wendy&Neko @Staci & Ivy @cecile & bella @Fistuk & Shelly) were all right!!! :D:D

This is last night:

And, I shot pretty low this morning at 103, basically a green already, so we're already off to a great start. :cat:

Hoping for a nice flat, surf in very low blues or very high greens.

Great job, Jason. Patience pants for the win! Kona showed you she could do it. Go Kona. :DHave a safe surf and a great weekend :bighug::bighug::bighug:
 
A little increase at +1, hoping we see some action with an onset at +2. I like the cycles to be active early on.

Bummer... was hoping for her to be going down, not up. Maybe a later active cycle, I hate those. I like early cycles.

Back at +3, if she is still going up, I'll give testing a break for a few hours.

Awesome! You stayed the course with the back to back reductions though it seemed Kona needed to go back up .25, but I on the flipside, increased .25 after only 3.5 days, and because Leo is an old-timer now with the diagnosis and age, to stay with the increase. Last night was beautiful, but this morning brought the under 50 BGs back, so it will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Glad to see Kona's super BGs and may it continue, but I see her +2 increase, just watch out for it to still go down before PMPS.

Yes, I think I'll see some action at the end. Maybe around +9. I'll for sure test then.

Hi Jason,
Kona's looking good with almost green preshot (squint hard!)
Still maybe a bit of food bump at +2? Curious how she will do after +4.
Enjoy the weekend with the girls, Jason! :bighug:

Kona usually doesn't have food bumps unless I do 5% or more. For breakfast I only did 3%, but hard to say... I think she's just back to this totally new thing of the cycle being active on the end. So weird... just now starting that up.

Hope Mikan is doing well, I need to do my rounds and check on all the kitties.
 
Note: starting up 1-TDC again. Per Vet's recommendations along time ago, I give Kona these for her oral health. I squeeze the contents onto her upper gums on the back teeth. Then let her eat the capsule.

TDC is TetraDecanol Complex Fatty Acids. Here's a study if anyone is interested > https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30652935/

The stuff is not cheap! https://www.chewy.com/1-tdc-periodontal-joint-health-dog/dp/231713

When Kona was first diagnosed, I ask the Vet if this was okay to continue and she said yes.

BG still rising, I'll be back in a few hours for the +9 just in case there's action then.

Had some extra blood, did a ketone test for good measures.
