Hi guys .. you can do it! Lots of support and help is always around here so you're never alone .. Before you know it, you'll be shooting mid greens without batting an eye! Have a great day guys!
Yes i think you might be right....I will need to convince myself to shoot
I hate it when he's at these levels at PM; AM I could convince myself to shoot knowing either my husband or I can monitor him. Nights are difficult.
And Boomer is at 122 at +10 and he's usually lower than this at PMPS so I may need help making the decision!
Does giving .5 units do anything at all if he normally gets 1.5 but I shy away from shooting because he is in the 120s/130s or lower?
If you're home tonight and have all your supplies, I'd shoot it! You've shot a higher dose with him at 158 before and he just surfed along. I know it's really scary when they start off so low, but Lantus is really nice in that it doesn't tend to cause big drops. i think you'll find Boomer will get flatter when you shoot low. I tried to think of shooting blue as letting the healing happen.
.5U is better than nothing, but 1U or 1.5 is even better. If Boomer is about the same or a bit higher, you should be able to shoot the whole dose. When you start lower you'll have a much flatter cycle.
Good luck with the decision. You can always delay without feeding again and test 20 minutes later to see if he's coming up.
