I've never had a pre shot number this low! (195) do I give him insulin? He's on 8.50 units, so I'm nervous it's going to be too much now

I staled for 15 minutes and then retested and he was at 215. I gave him his breakfast. I ended up giving him his usual dose. I hope that wasn't a mistake

If you are nervous, get a +1 and a +2 to see how the cycle will shape up.

Ya I was thinking that. I will monitor him today. I only have to be out of the house for an hour so I'll be testing throughout the day
Was it the right thing to do to give him the full amount?

Just tested him at +2. He's at 360 now. Not sure why it's so high. Now I'm wondering if I did a FS? I don't believe I did because his fur wasn't wet after I shot. I always feel his fur afterwards. But it's strange how it's higher than the pre shot. Or is it?

Yes.

He's at 360 now. Not sure why it's so high.

He bounced. Look what happened a few nights ago when he saw blue. The first few times I shot blues, then eventually greens, Neko bounced right away. Made it much easier to shoot low.
