Ok, the time has come to make a decision on dosage for the week. I sure would like to leave him here but need to keep him safe. If the past two days are any indication he would be ok if he continues to do what he has been doing.
What say you guys? Leave him @ 1.5U or reduce to 1.25U for the week?
He has been looking good on this dose and if he were to continue to have his lowest cycles at night that would be great, of course there is no guarantee.
As he spends more time on this dose you may find his overall range drop some, and that might be beyond your comfort level when you are not going to be there to monitor. Also if he does continue with his current pattern you may find it difficult to get adequate rest.
His numbers this weekend are very similar to last weekend, except that he is not bouncing (antijinx) like he was, so a very similar situation. You do get a +11 and a +1.5, so that gives you some options to make decisions on the fly in the morning.
The good thing about that is I only have to last one week. After that I am off until after the 1st. I can survive that. My main issue yesterday was I had strained my back and then cleaned house on top of it and I was in a LOT of pain. I took a muscle relaxer which didn't help with the tiredness too.
I am really leaning towards staying with this dose. If I do have to wait him out in the AM (and his patterns remain) I would only need to take a couple of hours and I can make that time up. I am going to play it by ear tonight and tomorrow a.m. Looking at his numbers from this weekend - he has not HAD to be managed with food (except the scheduled snacks). I really, really do NOT want to decrease.
