Could be a bit of a bounce from the greens....I am glad you gave the 1.0u although it is best to stay consistent. That 1.50u might have been a bit too much, but only more data will show for sure. 3 doses in 2 days...well, let's see if he can stay at this after the bounce is over. Will you be able to test today?
ETA: You can use this one as your Monday condo..I see that you posted earlier today...just update this one then, ok?

Trying to get a stable dose that can be given twice a day @ 12 hr intervals. So far, everything before today has got him too low in the evening.
I thought I read that the human glucometers read about 30-40 points lower vs AlphaTrack, so he may not have been as low as it looked on the chart. And on the times I double tested, the variability was + or - 7 points.

Sienne recommended a decrease to 0.75u so that BJ could consistently shoot twice a day.
It is much better to start low and work your way up than to try to work your way down to the right dose. I would go with Sienne's recommendation, she has far more experience than I do and understands very well how Lantus works....the shed action, etc.
The numbers he had were quite low and justify a significant decrease in dose in order to keep Spitzer safe. One of these times, he won't be able to eat himself out of the low numbers he is seeing.
