Reuben earned another reduction yesterday morning when, much to my surprise, the meter said 25 when I did the +3 test. :shock: He was acting completely normally, thank goodness! And I had a dish of hc gravy in the fridge, also thank goodness!, and I literally just globbed fingerfulls of it into his mouth and 5 minutes later he was at 35, 10 minutes later at 37, and by +3.75 he was at 49. He spent the next couple of hours in the 40's - despite the all-you-must-eat buffet I provided, encouraged and cajoled - and by +6 he managed to edge up to the low fifties where he spent the next 3 hours, continuing to indulge in buffet-style eating. I discovered that Platinum Performance is 30% carbs and that helped our cause, mixed with Forti Flora, yumyumyum! He spent +9 in the 60's, +10 in the 70's, +11 in the 80's and 90's and PMPS was 103, WHEW!!!
Thank you Jane and Leslie for the hand holding, wisdom and laughs; Dyana for making me jump up right then and test, and Sienne for the PMPS 'SHOOOOOOT'.
And Melanie, Lisa, Helen and Angela thank you for your visits, support and encouragement!!
