Pink preshot I know Lantus if stored correctly should last more than a month but think I am going to get a new vial just to be sure our current one isn't losing potency or something. Would start that one for tomorrows cycle and see how today goes.

 

[Sienne and Gabby (GA)]

I do suspect your insulin is fine. You may be seeing a small bounce from the blue numbers yesterday.

Many people opt to buy the pens rather than vials. You can get the biosimilar (generic) glargine in both forms. The pens end up being more economical. There's also the added advantage that they are encased in plastic so there's less chance of breakage if you drop the pen. Dropping the vial means you're out of insulin. There are also 5 pens in each box.

 

[Dan and Marc]

Yea the insulin probably is ok more just me trying to explain things. I know he could of bounced just generally he lasts longer in blues before bouncing, though his +5 was 199 so might be new dose stuff too. Ill have to look into the pens and how you draw from them.

 

[Wendy&Neko]

If the vial is stored in the fridge, most people get around six months from it.

In addition to what Sienne said, there could also be the added effect of New Dose Wonkiness. Lantus teaches us patience.

 

[Dan and Marc]

Yea we store it in the door of our fridge on the top, I think thats the most consistent temp wise.

 

[Wendy&Neko]

Door fridge temperature varies when the door is open. Best to store inside the fridge proper. But I don't think it's impacted the vial enough that you need a replacement yet.

 

[Dan and Marc]

+7 163, nice to see still dropping.

 

[Dan and Marc]

+8 134, checking often but curious since he keeps going down. Will do a +10 (eats close to 9).

 

[Bandit's Mom]

He gets a meal at +8 or so, right?

 

[Dan and Marc]

He gets it at +8.5 yea. His +10 was 132, keep surfing Chronos!

 

[Dan and Marc]

Also the past two times we've cut his calories probably only 20-25 calories per instance, but we are doing it equally between the Royal Canin and Weruva. However being a little more strategic about it, so his AM 8.5 meal and PM 4.25 meal we reduce the Royal Canin so he gets less carbs and reduced the Weruva from the two preshot meals, so less carbs during a cycle and "more" before the shot.

 

[Dan and Marc]

Still blue, PMPS 136

 

[Bandit's Mom]

Nice surf!

 

[Dan and Marc]

+2 109 @Bandit's Mom should I do anything or see what he is at +3?

 

[Bandit's Mom]

+2 109 @Bandit's Mom should I do anything or see what he is at +3?

Please him a tsp of food and get a +3?

ETA: More RC and less Weruva. Later in the cycle, it can be more Weruva (or only Weruva) and less RC.

 

[Dan and Marc]

Which food should I do, the royal canin (HC) or the Weruva?

Edited my post Quite a drop, so feed the RC. That's 16%?

 

[Dan and Marc]

I think its 20 actually, dont think Dr. Pierson's chart is up to date, Tanya CKD has 21% I think.

 

[Dan and Marc]

K fed some, will check +3

 

[Bandit's Mom]

Then a mix of RC and Weruva would have been okay. Sorry for the delay in responding.

Btw, have you thought about whether you want to lower his reduction point?

 

[Dan and Marc]

+3 was 80, giving im more RC, assuming I should recheck in 30 minutes?

 

[Bandit's Mom]

+3 was 80, giving im more RC, assuming I should recheck in 30 minutes?

Check at +4 should be fine. He is in safe numbers.

Did he get only RC at +2?

 

[Dan and Marc]

Yea both times only RC so far.

 

[Dan and Marc]

I did check at 3.5 which was 90, +4 is 82. Think he fine to wait till his normal meal at +5.25? I normally would go to bed now or should I stay up? @Bandit's Mom

 

[Bandit's Mom]

Sorry. Only just seeing this. Did he get food at +4? RC again?

 

[Dan and Marc]

No I didn’t give him more since he wasn’t lower than the +3. I’ll get a +5 and then he’ll get the rest of his normal meal, mainly just weruva.

 

[Dan and Marc]

+5 was 96

 

[Bandit's Mom]

You are good for the night. Stay with Weruva for the rest of the cycle.
