Last Night:
393 PMPS
412 +3.75

J.D. is in bounce. He slept with me all night, and I had to get him out of bed. He is now laying on the couch.
He ate his 1st Breffis served to him. He is lucky he gets to sleep all day. Yesterday at work was grueling, and I am still exhausted, and would love to sleep like him, all day.
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. AMPS 319

Good morning Dyana:)

Sorry to hear you had a tough day at work yesterday. Hoping today will be a bit easier:)
There have been many times when I wished I could be a cat...all curled up in a soft comfy spot to dream the day away. Lucky kitters:)

Have a great day!
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. AMPS 319

Aww...Dyana. Hope JD comes down a bit with those numbers! I am sure JD wants to be us human, free to go out anytime, can eat anything he wants & no pokies!
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. AMPS 319

Oh JD! Clear that bounce buddy. I hear you on the sleeping. Wouldn't it be tough to lay around all day and have breffis in bed. Oh well. I want to be a cat in my next life. Have a great day Dyana!

I gave him some MC for his 1st dinner.

I thought he may go low (er) today, but it was a passing thought,, because I gave him some LC mixed with MC for his 1st Breffis and he only went up 7 points in an hour, so I gave him some more of the same, and left for work.

I'll test again, in about 5 minutes.

I just don't want him to sky rocket, yet :sad:
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. PMPS 61

Oh, wait, I understand, I think. Sorry :oops: . No, I shot. I'm home to monitor.
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. PMPS 61, +0.5 91

I'll test again at +1, but I think he just had a late nadir or something.
I also had a feeling he was coming down from his bounce, today, but who can say when your cat is still in pink ;-)
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. PMPS 61, +0.5 91, +1 108

I do not know when he nadir but just make sure you catch it when/if he starts to go back down. maybe a tsp every hour of MC or HC. even if he is going up with the food, when the insulin kicks in KWIM
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. PMPS 61, +0.5 91, +1 108

J.D is looking good for now. Hope you can get some rest in tonight Dyana, after yesterdays hard work.

:YMHUG:
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. PMPS 61, +0.5 91, +1 108

Okay, but he is on Levemir, and it takes about 4 hours for the insulin to kick in, and I pretty much try to go to bed in an hour (at +2.5). So, I just set alarms and wake up to test (and feed if necessary).

If I had an AMPS of 61, this would be a totally different story, if I was going to work ..

He just ate some of his leftover food from this afternoon. I'll test again at +2, okay?
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. PMPS 61, +0.5 91, +1 108

okay. we are just trying to get him to surf these numbers and not go low again before nadir. he is still working on last dose. if we can do that, then in a few days I think we can shave again. right now (cause I do not know WTH I am doing) :) I think it best to dosecrease slowly and control with food
wheez nadirs at +3 or 4 then sometimes +8 or 9

That's why normally, I feel like I should not feed him until +3 or +4, because that's when he is normally just starting onset. Like right now, I feel like not feeding him, because I want him to surf, because he keeps rising (although nice and slowly :)). But, I do need to get his pills in him, and like him to eat after taking his pills, so I'm going to feed him some LC now.

Hey, Dian, Thanks for helping :YMHUG: :razz:
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. PMPS 61, +0.5 91, +1 108, +2 136

that's fine. you know him better than I. at least # are higher and drop (fingers crossed) should not be so bad [if it happens].

when you testing again?? just curious. you know what to do.
at least he is coming out of his bounces a lot quicker
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. PMPS 61, +0.5 91, +1 108, +2 136

I'll test in 30 minutes at +3, then it's bed time.

I had his pill all rolled up in the pill pocket and he was so absorbed in noisily eating his dinner, that he just grabbed it and ate it :lol: Normally, I have to push it down his throat.
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. PMPS 61, +0.5 91, +1 108, +2 136

Normally, +6 (12:00am), +7 (1:00am) and +8 (2:00am), sometimes, depending upon his numbers, I'll get a +9 (3:00am) or a +10 (4:00am).

Tonight, I will change things and start with a +4 (10:00pm), and go from there.

Besides the LC meal he just ate for 2nd Dinner, he also had a few bites of my chicken leg for dinner, and it looks like most of the automatic feeder food (Sophisticat) is gone now, which wasn't when I got home from work.. And, he's had lots of freeze dried salmon :)
 
Re: 05/07 J.D. PMPS 61, +0.5 91, +1 108, +2 136

at least a +4 and 6. should be safe after that if he nadirs at +4. this is al ltrial and error and should help if happens again.
good job
 
I think he usually nadirs around +8.5 or so. That's why I try to get to bed early, because if he keeps me up for a little bit, in the middle of the night, it kind of helps to have a few hours of sleep, at least.

Since he's 160, now. I want to wait until +5 to test next, and get 2 hours of sleep. Good?
 
sounds like a plan. or a +6?? near nadir then whenever you can. hoping the food will hold him for that.
I am off to bed. up at 2:30 to test my guys
fingers crossed for an uneventful night. he did have more to eat than normally. nite
