3/6 Acro Snuggie: nevermind, I’ll be home in 3 cycles (vacation dose help please; BGs in high 500s)

[Jay Dee]

Hi all -

I am out of town and my hubs is at home taking care of Snuggie. I had him on a vacation dose based on his declining BGs after being treated with antibiotics for a mouth infection. We were at 8u vacation dose bc he dropped lower than I wanted my husband to have to deal with. My hubs is having trouble testing and Snuggie’s BGs decided to increase as soon as I left. We are past what could be considered a bounce. I’ll be home Tuesday eve so only have 4 more cycles before I’m home.

My question is - we increased his VD from 8 to 9 and there’s been no improvement. Is it safe for him to bump up the dose another unit at this time?

i am not looking for critiques on how I’ve been managing him prior to this - I am doing the best I can given my own life situation, I just am hoping for answers on if we should stay ar 9 units even tho his BG is over 500 or if we can raise to 10 now. My husband is LUCKY he can get 3 tests a day so I don’t want to risk hypo.

Thanks!

I’ll be home in 3 more cycles so will just do our thing once I’m back. Im sure he’ll be fine with 1-2 more days of high BG.
