83 at +4.

Do we need to reduce again ? Or stay with 8.5u?

Thanks in advance. @Bron and Sheba (GA) @Wendy&Neko

Wow, he is on a mission.
Let’s see what Wendy thinks

I am glad to see the greens but now I don’t want to leave home and just want to be with Fa to know where she is at, in case she goes too low and I don’t know.

Took a sickie and staying at home today.

I see it is almost a year since Fa's diagnosis. That makes me wonder whether part of the reason Fa needs more insulin includes insulin auto-antibodies (IAA). They tend to go away around a year later. Just in case it is, or there is an explanation for the sudden streak of greens, I think you should reduce again. It's easier to go back up that fight or be worried over low numbers. With higher dose cats, I tend to be more cautious - even though this would be considered a back to back reduction. It is possible there is still some 9.25 unit depot influencing things, though the skip should have helped reduce it.

Thanks Wendy. I will do 8 unit tonight then.

It's good to know the reasoning behind. I will try to remember it and if I need to talk to the vet, at least i know what to tell her.

Another lovely green cycle! Go Fa!

 

[fafa's mum]

81@+5 Shall I reduce again tomorrow morning? Down to 7.5 unit ok?

If I am home, I can keep an eye on BG but when I need to work, I do worry more if she drops low. It’s good to see low and safe BG though.

The problem is that the larger depot can influence up to 6 cycles after a reduction. I suspect you are seeing the depot from the 9 and 9.25 units influencing the cycle tonight. I think you need to drain that depot more. If you are working tomorrow, maybe a half dose or skip, then try 8 units again in the PM.

Thanks Wendy. I have skipped the dose this morning. I think it's easier so I don't need to worry about Fa in the day time.

I will do 8 units tonight then.
