6/14 Screechy AMPS 364, +6, 246, PMPS 391

My company has left for this week (they return next week for a day). I'm thinking of raising his insulin to 1.75 units as was suggested in a previous condo tomorrow morning. I was also thinking of doing an overnight curve tomorrow night.
So my questions are:
1. Should I do an overnight curve first and then raise his insulin dose?
2. Do I even need to do an overnight curve right now or should I give him some time at his new dose first and then do one?

Night time is harder for me to get checks as he gets his insulin shot at 8:45 p.m. (so +6 is 2:45 a.m.).

Here's his previous condo:

I'm still trying to find this special boy his forever home. My company enjoyed him and he even slept with them.

For those of you who don't know his story, here is his blog. There are a couple of videos of him and some awesome pictures that a photographer just got of him. http://screechycat.blogspot.com/

Bumping to try to get an answer. I'll be raising his insulin dose in the morning to 1.75 units. I was planning on getting a nighttime curve tomorrow night. Should I wait until he's been on the new dose a few days or just go ahead go ahead and get one tomorrow night?

Maybe get a curve through the day and night tomorrow.. Or at least some spot checks at different times to fill in some gaps ie amps +1, +5, +10 and PMPS +5 and say +8? You can't always assume the nadir is at +6, it tends to wander and also depends on bounces..

Screechy is, indeed a very handsome boy - but it appears he already knows that. Thank you for caring for him. I hope he can find a loving forever home ((Denise))
