6/4 Mike's Buddy PMPS#292 Still darn!

[Mike&Buddy]

So, OK. These "bounces" might need addressing!?

This his first 300 in a while though, I still hate it when we get close to the yellows!

Still at .075u.

I have not checked during the mid/nights of late. We had to split our work hours up in order to see a doctor about our arm. They tested me most of the morning and had to scramble to get ready for work later. I have been doing OTD checks but that's about it.

Mike, I know the higher PS numbers are hard to take, but without mid-cycle data, it's impossible to tell if they are due to not enough insulin, or bouncing. Since dose is adjusted by nadir, you need to get some nadir checks to see if he needs to go up, KWIM? Can you try to get a nadir check tonight? I know your schedule is difficult...

I hope your arm is improving.

Re: 6/3 Mike's Buddy AMPS#300 Darn!

Hi, I am on my change of shift phase tonight.

Maybe no checks tonight till I get home around 1PM tomorrow but we will see. Our AMPS are done in the PM's and the PM's in the AM for us. EST. I have to be at work in the AM and I will be getting about 4 or 5 hours sleep tonight. I will be requesting a dismissal of this position this week since its voluntary but I was trying to make ends meet by making a few more hours a week. It's really messing up my sleep into the weekdays and when the job goes over I risk throwing Buddy's shot schedule all to heck. It was helping with some expenses but now I think its causing more pain than gain.

I hope to start a more closer pattern in the PM Saturday when he gets his AMPS. Then through out the day and into the evening I can do more checks.

Thanks for checking!

mike i saw your post in loose lips about the little stray kitter you've been taking care of for a while at work. hopefully the truck driver was just a compassionate, lonely person who will take great care of the cat. you did a great job taking care of him in the meantime. that was so kind of you!
