Yay, go Mister. Nice amps today. Looks like the increase is working.
His first green just now, +2 84
His +2 is 84, his first green! My eyes got so big when I read the meter.Yay, go Mister. Nice amps today. Looks like the increase is working.
Have a safe surf today![]()
Did you retest that? If it’s valid, Karolina is right and you need to slow that train down with a little MC food and retest 30 mins after he eats.His +2 is 84, his first green! My eyes got so big when I read the meter.
Is he dropping too quickly? How can one tell? This is his normal “small meal” time so he did just eat a little bit after the test.
I meant to reply to both of you in one comment Marje and Staci, I just learned how to do that
That is quite the drop so please keep monitoring. Are you able to get +3?
Do you have any MC or HC just in case he keeps dropping?
Yes, I’ll be home with him and will keep testing. He just ate 1/3 can LC mixed with a ~teaspoon of MC (13%) as I thought it was awfully quick too. He’s still hungry so just gave him some more of the MC. The second test read 83.Did you retest that?

Hated to ask you to poke him again since he doesn’t like it. Be careful on the food. If he decides to have a long cycle of green, you don’t want him to be too full. See you back here shortly with the next BG.Yes, I’ll be home with him and will keep testing. He just ate 1/3 can LC mixed with a ~teaspoon of MC (13%) as I thought it was awfully quick too.

I might have taken your advice too late, I think I gave him more food than necessary because I got a little nervous (and excited)Hated to ask you to poke him again since he doesn’t like it.

Ok that’s alright. It’s a learning curve and we don’t know how carb sensitive he is. Usually we just want to give a small amount of food so hold off now.I might have taken your advice too late, I think I gave him more food than necessary because I got a little nervous (and excited)
He’s at 111 now, this is his +3
You read my mind on all of this. Thank you so so much Marje.Ok that’s alright. It’s a learning curve and we don’t know how carb sensitive he is. Usually we just want to give a small amount of food so hold off now.
You can give him 1.5-2 hours to recheck. I’ll be gone but post if you need help.
I’m just happy to see progress. He will likely bounce from such a steep drop but that’s just part of the process.
You’re welcome. Hope you see some safe surf in’ in those numbers today.You read my mind on all of this. Thank you so so much Marje.

Do you think this is still a safe dose for tonight? I can continue to monitor him through the night (probably will get the same tests in regardless) or do we need to still see where he goes?You’re welcome. Hope you see some safe surf in’ in those numbers today.
