Good morning,

Not sure what to do here. Butch bg is high for a few cycles. I am missing some test on his spreadsheet due to the Libre falling/stopping. Please advise on dosing @Bandit's Mom @Angela & Cleo @tiffmaxee @Wendy&Neko

Thank you so much

I’d increase to 2.0 tonight or if you want wait until tomorrow unless you see green.

I'll start the increase to 2.0 tomorrow if no greens because it will be better for me to monitor Butch.
He did come down today into the high blue. I noticed that he has been staying flat in these higher numbers. When I see a green in +2, +3 with a big drop I panic and feed. It would be nice if I can figure out how to keep him flat in the pretty green and blue without bouncing for days. I am going to have a friend try to test with a handheld meter since the Libre is known to read lower numbers. Paws crossed he lets us!

What do you feed when you see a big drop? On 8/20 there was a big drop by +2.5. Maybe try a teaspoon or 2 of lc at +1 or 1.5 to slow him down.

Usually, 6% 2 tsp and continue. At times, like on 8/9 (night) I had to add 1/2 tsp of 12%. When giving 2 tsp at +1 or +1.5, do I give that even if the numbers didn't drop much?

 

[tiffmaxee]

I’d try lc then because if there’s going to be a big drop it seems to start by +2 or earlier. The ic wint cause the bg to rise.

PMPS 128

I am feeding 5% carb for pre-shot (dinner). I will do +1 or +1.5 lc.
Thank you so much

Let’s see what happens.

Good morning!
8/25 AMPS 339
No greens last night. I fed him 5% carb before his PMPS and 3% carb 2 tsp at +1.5. Butch stood in the blue but went up from his PMPS 128 with a bounce this morning. I increased .25 and did 2u. I'll monitor him today. Hope he slides down without any big drops.
Hope you enjoy your Sunday.

Try 5% at +1. It’s going to be trial and error.

Thank you. I'll try 5% tonight at the +1.
Butch ate 2% AMPS and +2 2 tsp 2% snack. He is now 120 +3. Should I give him another snack? If so, what %?

 

[tiffmaxee]

Looks like this is a bounce clearing cycle. Bug drop again. Give 5%. What % is your mc?

Yes. I just did a test 10 minutes ago 111. Libre shows that he is staying flat. The highest carbs that I have is 13, 14, 15%. Those % usually bring him up. I usually give him the 6% to keep him flat when he is in the low greens. Should I still give the 5% snack now?
