02/25 Rico Hypo at +7 BG 43 PMBG 66 Dosing?

[Bandit's Mom]

61 at +13. He started dropping his numbers again. Is it OK if I skip tonight and start with -0.25 in the morning?

Yes, skip the dose tonight and you would reduce to 2.5U in the morning. See if he will stay up for you tonight without any higher carbs.

He's been sleeping in a corner for the past 2 hours. I wake him up every now and then to check his eyes and they seem back to normal. However, he hasn't moved so that I can actually see how he moves around.

The reason I ask is that my Rover had a symptomatic hypo once. He walked in a straight line bumping into things. We loaded him up with corn syrup and raced to the emergency vet. It was temporary (and I stress temporary) brain blindness. It was gone by the time we got to the emergency vet. The vet performed a very simple test: take a cotton puff and drop it so that the cat's peripheral vision should catch sight of it. Do the other side. Then in front of the cat. A cotton puff is light enough not to disturb the air as it goes by.

Enjoy a well earned night's sleep.

Wishing you and Rico a restful night. You both had a rough day. Hoping tomorrow is much better. Big hugs to you both

Since you did not shoot, it would be “PMBG” in the subject line PMPS or AMPS means you shot so other members will be watching. Skipping or a fur shot is AMBG or PMBG.

I know it’s a steep learning curve

OMG, I was profoundly anxious just reading this thread!!!

A latecomer to the convo, I'm hoping all is well with you and Rico.

You did a great job handling the numbers today. Sleep well tonight.

Here is the link to your previous post here. Looks like that new vial really made a difference!
