1/20 Marley AMPS 226, +2 248, +3 206, PMPS 411, +2 278, +3 226, +5 156

Oh my goodness I am so so sorry I am so late. I was 40 mins late going Marley his injection. I just had one of those days and not alot of it was in my control.

His BG at PMPS was 411

I didnt know what to do, I came to my computer to ask you but it had switched itself off. (One of those days as I said) and it was taking forever to start up.

I was going to ask if I should go up to 2.5 or stay at 2.25f.

In the end it was taking so long, I thought I have to decide alone. And then I remembered last night I had loaded the 2.5 and then redone a 2.25f. So I decided as I was so late, as he was so high, and as I had a 2.5 ready and as 2.25 takes me ages to load, I gave him the 2.5.

What do you think to this decision?


Its hard for me to know if the 411 is due to not enough insulin or maybe did he go too low later in the day and now hes bouncing? What would your guess be,

After the drop form AMPS I felt like 206 was a safe number at +3 for me to go out. Do you think that wasnt a wise decision?

I know you are probably asleep but.....

Yes it was. It was not much of a drop from the AMPS and it was high enough to be safe. Btw, AM +3 isn't on your SS.

Since you have given 2.5U, you want to stay with that for a few cycles. You don't want to keep changing the dose based on preshots. My suggestion would be to stay with 2.5U and follow the rule of 3 drops between 40 and 50 on 3 separate days to take a reduction.

Ok will do.

Thank you so much!
 
Ive been offered three days work....in my old career....away.

Its really one day and a day of travel either side which could be amazing because if all goes well, (I know it doesnt always!) but I could try and leave later after the pm shot the travel day, and then travel through the night after the day, so only really be away for two shots.

I still haven't trained up my niece. She is the niece that lost her dad (to the vaccine) and its been a really very hard year for her. She is amazing, I am so proud of how she has coped but what a hard thing to cope with at 16. She sometimes just cant cope - so I am not sure I can rely on her for this, so I would have to find and train someone else....but at this stage I really do have to - financially.......so I think I'm going to have to sy yes...terrifying.....

Its 16th of feb and a travel day either side so I have a bit of time to prepare.....
