this high reading at +8 has me wonderingifshe is really bouncing or needs an increase in insulin. Please give your thoughts.
 
When Marmy is clearing her bounces, she's only getting into the 90's. I think she's bouncing, but could use a smidge more insulin. Is there anyway you could measure a 1.2U of insulin? So not quite back to the 1.3 that got her into the 40's.
 
I just got the calipers I ordered. I am using BD half unit syringes so I will do my best to to get to1.2 units and hopefully can figure out how to use the calipers to be really precise. I think you are right on with the smidge more.
Thank you Wendy!:cat:
 
I found the calipers really helped. That's when I found that some of my BD syringes sometimes have the zero line a lot higher than others, and I found a difference in up to 1/3 of a unit!
 
I chose several used syringes, measured a bunch of them at 5 units, then divided the result by 5.
 
Ok. Got my calculations done. Made a chart as Marge suggested. Quite a job for a non math, science lady. One unit came out to .63mm. Followed your plan. So tonight to give 1.2 units I've set the calipers to .76 (came out to.756 so I rounded up. Is that what I should do?).
