10/5 Max2 ~ AMPS=236, +3=266, +7=258, PMPS=236

Last night I had been worried I did a fur shot, but it looks like it went in okay. I always end up shooting out the extra bit with a flourish so sometimes I get the smell even though it's not a fur shot.

I did a .25 unit increase today. I mixed up the increase schedule a little. If I'm doing TR I'm a little late for increase, if still on SLGS I'm a little early. Since I'm not going to be testing any less than I already am, I guess I'm switching to TR or maybe something that ends up being more custom for Max & I.

I know getting Max regulated with him being on budesonide will be tricky. I'm wondering if there is any info that shows if there is a better chance of regulation doing TR or SLGS with IBD kitties and/or kitties on steroids.

Your assessment is correct and since you are switching to TR (I think), I would increase. Not all cats have increased bg with budesonide. It’s one of those ECID.

You are testing enough for TR and will be able to get him to a good dose sooner. With TR you evaluate the dose every 5 days when you start seeing nadirs below 200.

He was due for an increase today so it's good you took. Good luck with the increase!
