12/3 Max AMPS 360

Good morning. Yes I am very pleased with seeing these blue numbers! I just don’t feel like I’m doing a very good job of taking care of him right now. Once I get myself back up to par, hopefully I will be able to manage him better at night. I tend to over do it at night with the carbs because I’m afraid I won’t get up to check on him. Especially since he had SRT and I don’t know if and when that’s kicking in. His nadir is mostly later in the cycle but last night he started dropping early so I think I messed him up again with the carbs. He has GI problems with he gravy foods so I ordered Weruva higher carb, but he won’t touch it. I’m having to add honey to his regular food and it’s hard to know how much to add. He seems slower to come back up and I end up giving too much I think. We will get it right one of these days. I really wish I could find a HC food in pate without gravy.

I hope you are feeling better. Tell me, again, what SRT is? I never hesitated to give Susie a higher carb food at night if I thought she was dropping to fast or too much. Hey, we have to get our sleep too. I don't know about any HC pate cat food. Have you looked at the food list to see if you could find one. Susie didn't like Weruva either and I can't get Boo to eat it. When I used honey I would just drop a blob on top of Susie's food. It was probably about 1/8 of a tsp. Not too much.
 
I took him back .5 units tonight so maybe I can rest. I know I probably shouldn’t have but his tummy can’t tolerate extra carbs tonight. It may not even make much difference. He’s had GI problems again today and I’m still sick. Hopefully he won’t go too high and things will be better for me tomorrow.
 
Oh! Sorry Lori! I wonder what is causing his GI problems. I will want to know more later, but for now/tonight, I think you are doing the right thing.
