Should I shoot a full 2.5 U in 2 hours ? I am gone and daughter is in care till later tonight. Would hate for him to go to low and her not notice, or know what to do. I can KIT over phone and text and see what it is at that time.
Thanks

How long will you be gone for tonight, Kelly?
A lot can happen in 2 hours, and he may be in the blues or even the yellows by then.
I am guessing your daughter can test and is reliable and attentive.

Kelly --

Is the 97 your +10 or +8 (it's on your SS as your +10). How about getting a test at +11 or +11.5 and seeing where Oliver's numbers are at? A lot can happen in a couple of hours.

Also, keep in mind that you have options. You can always shoot a reduced dose. I wasn't clear from your question if you're leaving immediately after shot time. I also didn't quite understand when your daughter would be available to keep an eye on Oliver. Remind me -- can she test him? When will you be back home?

Thanks so much all. I should be gone about 4 or 5 hours. Yes daughter is 19 and yes reliable and attentive.
I will be too and KIT with her.I may jsut have her so a reduced shot if its not up to 150 by PMPS. Like 1 u or 1.5?
Ok thanks again leaving and will check in later.

Is your daughter able to log in here? If she shoots the full amount, we an always lend her a hand should Oliver decide to drop his numbers.

I'd definitely suggest she get a +11 or so test. Given Oliver's tendency to bounce, I suspect his numbers will go up. Since she can test, she can always stall for 30 min. and re-test as long as being off schedule won't be a problem.

If it were me, I don't know if I'd drop the dose back to 1.0u. Your kitty likes to bounce after a drop like today. That big of a reduction coupled with a bounce will probably only prolong the bounce. I don't know that I'd reduce much below 2.0u but it's entirely your call. You know Oliver best and you need to do what you're comfortable doing.
