yesterday: using R to flatten a bounce https://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB...1-25u-r-1-373-2-345-3-306-4-290-5-314.236859/

Starting the day with 7 U of Lantus (cycle 7) and 1.25 U of R. Ketones are still low, yay! Hoping they stay that way, but they might just be lagging the BG numbers.

My husband's school is remote today, so he'll be here to do the hourly checks this morning. Back to bed for me. (Really this time!)

Always good news when those pesky ketones are out of the picture! Keep away ole nasty ketones!!
Glad to hear that DH will be home to do some test today!

Back to bed?? Really? I'd never be able to go back to sleep...my mind is just on full speed this time of day! Check back with me at 6 p.m. tonight though...I'm dying by then ...

Have a great day Lisa!

Glad the ketones are low. I hope the R helps bring his numbers down today. Enjoy your btb.

 

[Lisa & Oberon]

Hmm. Seems like he's just determined to bounce. 444 at +6. Maybe this is because of his big drop last night? (398 at PMPS to 290 at +4) Wondering whether more R mid cycle would be helpful.

 

[Lisa & Oberon]

Held off on R to see what would happen... 419 at +7, so he's on his way down on his own.

You have another R opportunity coming up. Numbers wobble around during a bounce, so that's happening too.

 

[Lisa & Oberon]

Definitely getting R at PMPS, unless he somehow ends up below 300, which I think is unlikely. If he's over 400, should I consider bumping up the dose to start to build an R scale for upper BG numbers, or keep it where it is (1.25 U)?

 

[Wendy&Neko]

I would try 1.5U R if over 450. Last night he went down a bit over 100 points starting at 398, or close enough to 400 so I wouldn't change it below 450 yet.

 

[Lisa & Oberon]

Sounds good.

 

[Lisa & Oberon]

Morning numbers: +9 307, AMPS 370/1.7, +2 349, +4 396, +6 444, +7 419, +9 467

439 at PMPS, so he got 1.25 U of R again. And here come those ketones... 2.9. Betting they'll be higher tomorrow morning, given the BG numbers today.

So after two days of torturing the cat by grabbing him, wrapping him in a blanket, and squirting Veraflox down his throat, tonight I discovered that he'll happily eat it on his food.
