I am such an idiot!
I am also going to kill my DD whose interference is the reason the cat got one unit more insulin than he should!!!
We started a sliding scale recently and have been adjusting the doses based on response. Sue on the ProZinc forum has been a great help
Here is the sliding scale as of today:
High Pink = 3.25u
Low Pink = 3u
High Yellow = was 3u but dropped a 272-116 so my plan was for 2.75u
Low Yellow = still to be determined
Tonight's pmps was 297 so he was to get 2.75u. An untimely interruption while I was drawing up the insulin resulted in Tucker getting 3.75 units.
Looking back I can guess that he is going to drop pretty low and bounce horribly for the amps. I am so not happy right now :evil:
We were finally getting good numbers and having unshootable pmps's! I know his numbers will settle down but feel sick that my error could hurt him.
What should I do???
:cry:

He will mostly likely be in fine numbers and even if he drops low, you can steer the numbers with food.
