WCR: All is good in BlackieLand. Gave her ears a bit of a rest yesterday. Still working on waiting to see if the PMPS #s will go down on their own. This will be day 69 on 3.25u. So far, I'm loving the AMPS #s. Just wish that the PMPS would follow suit. *sigh* I think Blackie threw up white foam yesterday as I saw a dried patch on the carpet yesterday morning. Am wondering if that's the reason for the higher PMPS # last night... Which it could very well be. However, usually when she throws up white foam, the first PS # is typically the higher one, which I thought the AMPS would be, but wasn't. Whew! Think I dodged a bullet with that one. Thank goodness.

I know that dosing is based on the nadirs, and not the PS #s. Should I even remotely consider increasing her a bit to help bring those PMPS #s down, or should I leave it as it is, and do the wait and see thing to see if they'll go down on her own? I know that the PS #s are the last to come down, and am wondering if the PMPS #s will come down on their own like the AMPS #s did? I'd really hate to tempt fate, but am having a smidgen of doubt right now, and this old timer needs a tad bit more guidance and/or information. Thank you.

MY WISH: For God to help heal the broken hearts of those who lost a beloved pet and/or human... For God to help those ailing make a full and speedy recovery... For everyone to have great #s... For everyone to be OTJ.
 
Re: 2 More Dose ?s: 10/15 Blackie AMPS 108

Hi guys .. no dosing advice from me, but Blackie is looking wonderful as usual! Keep up the good work you guys! have a great day!
 
Re: 2 More Dose ?s: 10/15 Blackie AMPS 108

When are you feeding? If you are feeding on a different schedule during the AM vs. PM cycle, I'd suggest feeding the same way.
 
Re: 2 More Dose ?s: 10/15 Blackie AMPS 108

Feeding schedule is PS and +1 only now both AMPS and PMPS. The reason I've scaled back to only 4x/day is because I need to find work, and she doesn't do well locked by herself for long periods of time.
 
Re: 2 More Dose ?s: 10/15 Blackie AMPS 108

You might try giving a "snack" at around +8 or +9 and see if that helps. I'd view it as an experiment and try it only during the AM cycle since it's the PM numbers that are higher. The good news is that while the numbers are a little higher, they are below renal threshold.
 
Re: 2 More Dose ?s: 10/15 Blackie AMPS 108

Blackie is looking really good, even with the higher PMPS numbers. I hope things are OK with sweet Bubba. Have a great day, Angela!
 
Re: 2 More Dose ?s: 10/15 Blackie AMPS 108

Blackie is looking good. I hope you get Bubba's test results back today.
 
Re: 2 More Dose ?s: 10/15 Blackie AMPS 108

i'll be curious to see if feeding a little bit later in the cycle will help bring down the pmps.

blackie's ss is looking really good, angela. well done!
 
Recap:

AMPS 108, 3.25u, 38g Evo 95% C&T
+1 - 38g Evo 95% C&T
+5 74
+7 76
PMPS 99, 3.25u, 38g Evo 95% C&T
+1 - 38g Evo 95% C&T
+2 94
+4 68

I'm hesitant to try it a snack, because of her past history of spikes, and then I'll be back to where I was before. Besides, it'll be difficult for me to feed her +8 or +9 if I have a job. I'm already having a problem with trying to get her to finish her PS and +1 meals.
