? 6/12 Brody Dosing Advice

[Michaellh33]

So I got my first 2 green numbers in a long time. Should I go ahead and give the 3.0 units or lower it to 2.75? I will be here to monitor him after the shot.

Under the Tight Regulation protocol, we lower the dose when we see a number under 50. I see you able to monitor Brody tonight. Do you have plenty of test strips and high carb food in case you need them? He is on the rise up so should be safe to shoot.

If you do shoot the 3.0U dose, I'd get a +1 and a +2 test to start, as it's your lowest shot yet. I won't be able to stay with you tonight, though maybe for the +1 test. There will likely be other people around if you need help. Often if you shoot low, the cycle is quite flat, but you never know - you are dealing with cats!

If you are uncomfortable shooting now, you can always delay 1/2 hour, without feeding, and test again to see if he's risen higher. Or you can shoot a temporary lower dose.

I will just do a normal dose and test him at +1 and +2. I will be here so I will hopefully be able to catch anythign out of hte ordinary. I also do have some high carb food.

He is doing good so far tonight.

Great job shooting that green!

Did you get a +1?

 

[Michaellh33]

I did not get a +1 unfortunately, I got a little side tracked....

Until you are comfortable with his patterns (and even then he might throw you a loop), when you are shooting greens like that, it's a good idea to grab the +1. He could have just as easily been on his way down, still, as on his way up. He was pretty flat going into PMPS.

Just a thought for the next time
