10/30 Biggie PMBG 61 - NS +1.75 80 +3 95 +9.5 106

Yesterday

AMPS is 55

Going to start giving MC at +1

 

[Jackie and Biggie]

AMPS + 2.25 is 52

I added 4-5 drops maple syrup to the MC at +2.5
I’m pretty sure the maple syrup gives him a sugar rush b/c it seems like his breathing is faster after I have given it.

Trying just the gravy from the weruva pouches mixed with a bit of LC and MC, giving it every 30 mins. Hope the gravy doesn’t give him loose stools again.

Thanks, Diane!

He came up more around +5 yesterday, so hopefully next test will be a bigger bump.

He’s at 52, so will go with more maple syrup. The HC gravy doesn’t seem to be enough.

 

[Jackie and Biggie]

55 @ 7.25
The needle barely moved. Going for a full 1/4tsp maple syrup with 17% HC. I probably need to find some higher HC.

Not testing too often because he is tired of it- to put it nicely.

@Bandit's Mom How soon can I take him to the next lower dose? We have been struggling all day to keep him above 50, feeding HC twice an hour. I can’t believe he still wants to eat, his appetite waned a bit there but he’s still going with coaxing.

 

[Jackie and Biggie]

60 @ +8 (45 mins after previous snack)
Fed another tsp of HC and 1/4 tsp of maple syrup, and going to finally leave the house to get test strips…and some chocolate for me!

64 @ 9.25 giving 2tsp of 17% gravy

Well, PMPS is 61, down from 67 less than an hour ago. I am going to skip tonight. It wasn’t easy for me to keep him up today. I worry about my ability to keep him up in the future if he starts out low again.

I’m going to get Karo because it has a higher glycemic index than maple syrup and more carbs, so maybe that will help in the future. But he was much harder to keep up than previous times when he responded more to HC.

Today’s bgs:
10/30 Biggie AMPS 55 +1 55 +2.25 52 +3.5 59 +4.5 56 +6 52 +7.25 55 +8 60 +9.25 64 +10 72 +11.25 67

Wow! He is in a mood to go down the dosing ladder. I would try 2.25U from tomorrow. Congrats and hope you get to tank up on sleep tonight!

Thanks, Bhooma. I’m a little wound up from the long day but going to try to get a few solid hours of sleep tonight.

Get a test before bed? The depot will continue to affect the first part of the cycle even after a skip. You can stay with LC since you have skipped.

I was curious to see when he’d start to go up so I tested. He was at 80 at +1.75 and 95 now at +3.

@Bandit's Mom
He is at 106 this morning…2 hours before his shot. I am feeding him a bit now. Should I still plan on 2.25u?

ETA - I did the 2.25u. I am concerned it could still be more than he needs but will hopefully be able to deal with it if it is.
