It seemed like Ming might've had a nice cycle last night but of course I slept through it Bouncing all day.

And now looks like he's headed back down.

So far.... I have no idea what's going on.

Ok maybe I'm being dramatic but I do know he's bouncing from diving.

Is this "typical"/has this happened to kitties who just started Levemir? I was expecting some flatter cycles and I guess I'm just disappointed.

+6 = 166

Imagine if I based my doses on AM cycles hahah

MARCH 26:

AMPS = 268

And I shot late again by 45 minutes (I am always so tired. I should probably go see the doctor and ask if this is an issue.) I didn’t even let Ming eat first before I gave him his shot. I tested him first of course and he ate well afterwards.

+4 = 306

Anything thoughts? Or do I just need to keep my patience pants on?

And maybe get more nadir tests if I can WAKE UP!! lol I wake up and then I turn off my MULTIPLE alarms off and go right back to sleep. My body has a mind of its own.

First off, you could be at too low a dose of Levemir to see how it can be flatter. You started low, he had a bit of an initial reaction, but I don’t see green again. Maybe PM of 24th? Regardless, depot is build, I am not liking what this dose is doing, time for an increase. Also remember that it can take a cat a month or two to learn how to work the new hormone (insulin).

I gathered enough data during the day and spot checks during the PM cycles, to know when I needed to get up for a nadir check, and when I could sleep after the before bed test. Thankfully rowing gets me up at what was +9, nadirish, 4 times a week. Too bad you didn’t get a before bed on the 24th. Neko’s onset was after I went to bed, but based on her AM cycle, PMPS and before bed test, I could figure out if I needed to set an alarm.

Too bad you didn’t get a before bed on the 24th.

Yes, I am really disappointed in myself that I wasn't able to get enough/any tests on the 24th PM cycle.

But yes, I want to increase too! I'm glad you're suggesting it since I wasn't sure if I was being impatient. Ming going into blues at night is throwing me off.

lso remember that it can take a cat a month or two to learn how to work the new hormone (insulin).

Thank you for this info! I didn't know that

+6 = 205

That’s niiiiiiice.

 

[Crista & Ming]

+8 = 178

Hmmmmmmmm

 

[Wendy&Neko]

That +10 makes the decision easier.

 

[Crista & Ming]

I know, right?

Nice blues Ming! Keep em coming!

 

[Crista & Ming]

PMPS = 391

The times of my tests during the AM cycle were wrong today but they're correct on the SS. It just won't be correct in the condo

Upped to 6 units!
