1/11 Papaya AMPS=545 +6=137 PMPS=536 +2=392

Yesterday had green!

A typically Papaya bounce . . . at least it wasn't off the meter this time. I really hate seeing those "Warning! Above 33.3!" messages!

She must know the Tigger song from Winnie the Pooh:

A wonderful thing is a Tigger;
A Tigger's a wonderful thing.
Their tops are made out of rubber,
their bottoms are made out of spring
They're bouncy, bouncy, bouncy, bouncy,
fun, fun, fun, fun, fun . . .

Papaya may have to consider a name change. Well, we're under a blizzard warning here today so it will be a quiet inside day. Maybe when it arrives in full force tonight it will bring some lower numbers with it!

Thanks, Michelle, Papaya must have heard you! She's actually back down into blue already - I don't think I've ever seen a bounce start to clear that fast. Happy dance!

Re: 1/11 Papaya AMPS 545

on Jan. 7 (when I was shooting 1.5) you said : "The PM cycles look good but the AM bounces are just brutal! I wouldn't hold the dose for more than 3 days."
on Jan. 8, you said: "I would increase this evening. I'd bring the dose up by 0.25u."
today you say: "At 1.5u, you were seeing more green and blue plus bounces. Because your nadirs were in better ranges, you could/should have held the dose for 5 days. You raised the dose after 7 cycles."

I'm not sure how why I said that on 1/9. Sometimes, as more data is available, what was true a day or two before is not longer the case. For now, though, I'd wait to see how the 1.75u dose is working out. The greens are pretty. The AMPS -- not so much.

Thanks, Sienne, for responding. I know the dosing is my decision to make, and I'm not taking anything anyone suggests as written in stone - it's always helpful to have other eyes seeing trends from perspectives I may not have. It was just a tad frustrating to keep being told I had done completely the wrong thing, when it was exactly what I'd been told to do the day before to fix the fact that at that point I was also being told I was doing completely the wrong thing, you know? I totally appreciate all your input, though, and I agree with you about how sometimes looking back different trends are visible. Plus I know Papaya is beyond unpredictable :?

Overall, despite the horrible PS numbers, the bounces are often clearing in one cycle now, and today it looks like it's already coming down decently from what was at least a slightly lower foray into black. So maybe this 1.75 is actually going to settle things down a bit. Here's hoping!
