09/03 Hercules AMPS 281 - A comedy of errors...

Morning everyone. Had a distrous day yesterday, here is hoping that today is better, For everyone :)

I am fascinated by yesterday's numbers though.... I think Hercs got into a lot of kibble yesterday, which probably explains his very high numbers. But he also had a really low value the day before, so it could be a giant bounce. Probably the combination of both.

Then.... I don't know how, I forgot to give his insulin.:banghead::banghead: But since I didn't notice, I kept waking up in the night to check :banghead::banghead: So it is interesting because I can see the numbers coming down even though he had no insulin. Sure, there might be still a little depot, but AMPS lower than the last 2 days. Interesting, no?

Finally, we decided to try giving him higher carb food to see if we can flatten him out, perhaps give him a bit more insulin... and he does not like the MC food (Hill prescriptio diabetes). So there is another open can wasted.... Will try a new concotion today....

Oh no! Just call it a fur shot. These things happen:cat:.
I hope you have a better day today:bighug:. Maybe you can find a non-prescription food with more carbs for Hercs that he will enjoy.
 
How did he get into kibble? Your civivie eats kibble? Why??!!!

Because i am cheap! I bought a 10kgbag ofkibbleright before Hercs was diagnosed..... There are only a few days left, and I cannot wait!

So you prepared his syringe and forgot to shoot? :D

Exactly!:banghead:
 
now i'm even more curious about how you didn't notice it and tested through the night!
I put the syringe down in the usual place, but something must have distracted me from my routine...
It was when I awoke at 2 Am and lean on the shelf that I noticed it, and litteraly slapped myself!

So... he is flat and high today.... 6% carb too much? Insuline dose too little or still bouncing?

Shouldn't have changed both at the same time!:blackeye:
