Thought I'd check in and post an update on Biscuit. He has been "holding steady" at 0.1 u for a little over a month now. Last week he technically earned a reduction but as we're at 0.1 and the 45's were spread out over the entire month so we elected to stay where we are. He's really not ready to go OTJ yet. To be honest, I'm not sure how to help him move forward. I supposed it's good that we are at so low of a dose but his numbers often don't make much sense to me. Some days he'll have a nice run of greens, then for no reason I can see (Don't think I'm missing the lows unless they are occurring outside the normal first 6 hours - and that would be very unlike Biscuit) he jumps into the yellow for one or two readings.
For now, we are just going along, hoping eventually he'll come on down to the greens consistently. We are already feeding him low carb - under 6% 4 times a day spaced out in the early part of his cycle - at AMPS, +4, PMPS and +4. If the +4 reading is low, we feed an 8-10% instead. Not sure there is anything further we can do but wait.
If anyone sees anything on his spreadsheet that jumps out at you - please let me know. Otherwise we are just going to keep keeping on.
