Oh boy, this is the lowest we’ve ever shot. I gave him the full dose, but with a few tsp of HC food, because I won’t be able to test him until about +7.

 

**He was at 78 at his normal shot time, then 80 after stalling for 15 minutes.

 

He’s at 73 now 30 mins after shot time I have to leave for work soon, idk what to do - I can try to sneak back home maybe in 3 hours or so

gonna feed him more HC, and also mix some into his regular LC pate he eats throughout the day. in hindsight I wish I’d given a partial dose.​

 

The HC mixed into his usual LC should keep him safe. If you can get a +3, that would be great.
Even if you had shot a token dose, the depot would have affected the first part of the cycle.

 

Just got home, he’s at 84 at +3.75! I’ll make sure he eats more too.

 

Tested him 15 mins later, so +4, and now he’s at 75. But he also just ate a lot from his MC food. I’ll give him more HC gravy just to be safe, and maybe mix more into his food bowl too.

I know he hasn’t dropped under 50 but I would guess he would have if not for the carbs - should I reduce tonight or hold the dose?

 

He's looking food on this dose for now, so I would hold it....

 

Gotcha. Crossing my fingers, knocking on wood, and everything else to hope that he settles into some nice flat green cycles

 

And now he's up to 131 at +8! I imagine all the HC food helped, lil dudes been eating good today LOL

 

Jumped up to 179 for the PMPS. How long does it take for the HC food to leave his system/stop affecting his numbers? He ate maybe a little less than a full can of HC FF today.

 

Yeah, carbs after the nadir can cause numbers to zoom since there is a loss of duration.

Just a couple of hours, but he might stay a little higher both on account of the loss of duration and some element of bouncing.
