Lowest preshot number yet. Should I shoot regular dose or reduce?

Hi Allison
That is lower than you have shot before.
Is your kitty a good eater?
Do you have plenty of HC food and test strips and are willing to test all cycle if needed?.

Your options are:
Give full dose
Give a smaller dose
Skip

I can’t stay with you at the moment if you shoot though so I hesitate to say shoot.

Lucky hasn't earned a reduction per TR. Will you be able to monitor tonight him if you shoot?
He is probably breaking a bounce and therefore heading lower. When did he last eat?

He held at 87 for 45 mns. I went ahead and gave him his full dose. He does tend to rise by 20 or so after he eats. He had not eaten 2 hours prior before his pmps test. I can monitor him throughout the night and have the emergency kit, if needed

Congratulations on shooting your first green! Get a +1 and +2 and we can take it from there. Has he eaten at shot time?

 

[Bron and Sheba (GA)]

Well done!
He was probably dropping further because he needed food.
I’ll try and check in at +1 and +2

Yes! He has always had a robust appetite and not picky.

That's good. You might have to keep him surfing safe greens by feeding him at regular intervals.

ETA: Could you update your thread title to show his PMPS so that people know you are no longer stalling and waiting for help?

 

[Bandit's Mom]

72 at +1. did you give him a little more food to keep him surfing?

 

[allison snyder]

+1 72 and

72 at +1. did you give him a little more food to keep him surfing?

Yes, he ate 30 mns. after and he is 69 +2

 

[Bron and Sheba (GA)]

I would give him another snack now.
We want him to be a bit higher at onset so he has a bit of room if he drops.

nice surf!

Fingers and paws crossed, he doesn't drop too much in the next couple of hours.

 

[Bron and Sheba (GA)]

+3 69.
I would give a small low carb snack to encourage him to continue surfing

looks like he is beginning a bounce and you might get to go to bed after all!

Yes, he's been snacking. Now, he's going up at +4.

I would stop feeding and see if he stays up without food.

 

[allison snyder]

I'll check again
