Bear is not happy about sharing "his" bed that he stole from the dog

Hi everyone!

Happy Monday. Bear seems to be trending on the higher end the past few couple days. I know I had at least one fur shot, maybe two. His libre also died so relying on the old stick and poke which means less readings, but that's alright.

Should I increase his dose or wait to see if he levels out after a few days?

I'm going to tag Elise , Suzanne and Wendy for you whether or not you should increase the dose yet when you test with the keto mojo meter I would note that on your SS you can just add tested Keto Mojo in the same cell as the BG number , are you going to get another Libre?

I'm not sure yet. If we change his dose, probably. Our specialist said we don't need to (but she also doesn't like them). I don't mind paying for them, but it's annoying to pay so much for them and then have them applied incorrectly. I might try the next one myself if we decide to do it.
 
A favour to ask, if you think you did a fur shot in a particular cycle, could you put FS? beside the units in the spreadsheet. That way we can take it into consideration when looking at the data. Fur shots are a factor in deciding when and if to increase. I always did the sniff test, sniffing the injection site if I thought it was a possible fur shot. The nose could always tell me what happened. A post that might help: Reminder: Counting Cycles

Also, we dose based on how low the cat goes on a dose. You've been seeing 50's, which doesn't give you much room to increase. Speaking of data, did you get any tests the night of the 7th?

Will do. Sometimes I see if I can feel it, but sniffing is a good idea. If you think it was a FR but you're not sure, do you leave it, or do another dose? I'm assuming leave it but just want to be sure.

On the 7th I meant to set an alarm for 11:30PM but accidentally set it for the AM and slept through the whole night. Sorry!

Of course today I had a crazy day at work and left in such a hurry I left the reader on my desk, so you won't see any numbers tonight either. Ugh. Thank you for your reminders and for being patient with me and Bear :cat:
 
You only shoot once, whether or not you think it's a fur shot. You'd be amazed how many times people think they did a fur shot but still see some action on that cycle. And with a fur shot, you never know how much got in. Better safe just to leave it be.

No worry on the 7th, maybe just a note in the SS that you missed the alarm. You aren't the first! I'm also asking because people sometimes forget to enter the data.
