Rocky's BG numbers are high most of the day.
Reduced insulin from 0.75 to 0.5 because it looked like he had sudden and severe drops sending him bouncing from green number.
I'm really worried that his BG is high most of the time and it's going to affect his kidneys as he is drinking a lot of water and going to the garden to wee much more often than he used to.
On 24th Jan his PSAM number was lower and I thought he was coming out of a bounce but then he was in pink again.
I don't really know what to think about this.
Looking at others SS I don't really see red and pink numbers for days all day long, what I usually see is highs and lows. But I might be wrong.
I know I have to wear "patience pants" but your instinct is to want to reduce these numbers as quickly as possible due to glucose toxicity and its toll on the whole body.
Let's see what happens today but if it there is no change in pink numbers my question to you will be : what do I do?
 
A glimmer of hope that Rocky is coming out of bounce because his +4 BG is getting lower very slowly, I'll check him again at +6 and we shall see.
 
Hi Marlena,

I just looked at Rocky's sheet. I have no input at all regarding dosing, sorry... But I am happy for you and Rocky that he headed into yellow again today (looks like about the same time as yesterday too!)
Look at my boy Wynken's sheet. We have some days where we go from high to a low nadir (like yesterday) and then we have pink and red days... With seemingly no real drop. Or like 2days ago where we started yellow, up to pink briefly and other than the one blue, stayed flat (yellow).

Like you, I want my boy regulated... But sometimes they react to the insulin and other times it seems like they don't. :(

I will say to you what others have said to me… If Rocky is feeling good and acting well then hopefully you can keep on dancing and be patient. :rolleyes:

I really think this must be a huge part of what we have to do :bighug:
 
Cara,
thank you.
Rocky does seem to be feeling not too bad, I need to be patient as other lovely people on this forum said.
Best regards to you and your beautiful Wynken.

Marlene, patience is the hardest part of all this. Smokey has just started to stay out of the pink and red zones. When he bounces he is red and pink for 3 days. You will get there.
