we have test strips and hc and mc and we can monitorCan you monitor as long as needed? Do you have plenty of test strips and hc, mc etc? Will likely keep dropping without food but grab one more test to see.
we measured at 0.5 and its 106Feed a little higher carbs if there’s not a good food bump at +1.
sorry I got a call and didn’t get back faster.
we gave him 12g, which is abt a teaspoon, from 20g he usually bumps 18 points upFeed just a few teaspoons to keep hungry.
another 13%?Do it again and test in 30 please.
19.5If there’s another drop at +2, what other % carbs do you have?
we would like to keep him over 90, it is too early for a reductionOk. Let’s see the next test.we want to keep over 90 to avoid a reduction unless he has other ideas.
he's 92 @ 2 should we go with 19.5% or just 20g of 13%Yes. I agree.
TR, i will correct that, that was lack of knowledgeAre you following TR? Your ss says SLGS. With TR the reduction number is under 50.
sorry for the confusionTR, i will correct that, that was lack of knowledge
10g+10g?Don’t give higher carbs if following TR. Then let’s give a lc/mc mix this time.
i am fine with MC, we are new to low numbers so i prefer to keep him higher than lowerYou dint want the higher carbs unless he drops close to 50. It’s early in the cycle so that’s why I suggested mc
No worries, @tiffmaxee is guiding us thru itSorry I missed your thread.
I didn't get the notification of the tag.
You are in good hands.No worries, @tiffmaxee is guiding us thru it
the black surprised us in the morning and his progress was as well unexpected, we weren't prepared for such a low blue preshotYou are in good hands.
I was looking for a thread this afternoon when I saw he had gone from black to yellow this pm. I thought you might see a blue PS, nice shooting.
I had just got back in from walking the dogs when you posted, but had some work to do so I didn't come on the board.
Seems like you 've managed to slow him down, nice he is back to green.
I had to change plans due to George and his BG,PSbut Chico decided otherwise
He spent over 24 hours in low yellow and blue. I thought that maybe had triggered a bounce last night.the black surprised us in the morning and his progress was as well unexpected, we weren't prepared for such a low blue preshot
He spent over 24 hours in low yellow and blue. I thought that maybe had triggered a bounce last night.
But tonight is also 6 cycles from the greens, perhaps even though he gave you those nice blue cycles he hadn't quite cleared the bounce completely and tonight is the definite bounce clearing cycle.
It's not the first time he has thrown you a high number followed by 'surprise' drop in the following cycle.
He is wearing his coat of many colours today.
If he usually gets a snack now feed him his regular snack of LC.he increased to 90 @4; can i feed 10g of 2%? the increase might be because of all the MC, right?
He usually gets a snack at this time, i can give him the 10g LC cause i need to give the probiotic with it.If he usually gets a snack now feed him his regular snack of LC.
Or if he doesn't usually, give him 1 TSP of LC to see if he will stay flat and surf for you
He had the MC at +.5, I think that will have worn off by now.
The rest of the time you gave a mix so it's more like higher LC so you don't need to worry about that.
I hope too, today we intensified boulardi and tomorrow we will go to a new vet just to make more checkups, hopefully just as precautionOk in 1 hour.
Yep give him his regular LC and his probiotic.
I hope his poo is better tomorrow
What are you planning on getting checked out?I hope too, today we intensified boulardi and tomorrow we will go to a new vet just to make more checkups, hopefully just as precaution
B12, and endocrinology, from what i understand all from bloodWhat are you planning on getting checked out?
Good night, i still have to follow. Should i plan for any MC or not anymore?Fingers crossed there's no problems.
I'm going to catch some sleep now.
