Previous thread!

He stayed fairly low on the Libre all last night... Sam hadn't been feeling well so I didn't want to wake him up so we could get a manual test, just kept the alarms muted and woke up every couple hours to give LC snacks. I was kind of thinking we might be coming to the end of this Libre's lifespan and the greens weren't legitimate, so we grabbed a manual test just now for AMPS and it's at 53! I am shocked, definitely our lowest ever PS. Will stall 30 min and test again.
Edit: After 30 min we were at 70, so we went ahead and shot the full 1.75u!

Hope Sam feels better. Glad you got a manual test, hope he comes up a bit soon.

Those low PS are shocking when it's not the norm for your kitty. There's been a couple times I've shot first and tested those after!

Yes, several times we've given his shot and then realized we both assumed the other person had looked at the Libre first. I've been trying to implement a 'policy' that we say the number out loud before we shoot so we know at least one of us looked, lol.

Whoa whoa Esse what a ride. I wonder what he'll decide to do today. You manage him so well so I'm sure he'll be fine. Hope Sam feels better soon.
Happy sunday

Hope you have a calm day and Sam feels better!

Ew, yeah, I hate shooting those lower numbers--I had a 63 PS the other night that I shot, and he went down after the shot so I got to battle with that for a few hours.
I wonder: could it still be a little bit of the 2U depot, or (and I'm going to ANTI-JINX this right up front), *shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh*maybe he's sliding down the dosing ladder a bit*shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh*. I hope it's the latter
