Brought him from 2 to 1.75 yesterday. Now he throws a 67 at me. I'll retest in 15 minutes, but after that I need to leave for work and won't be back until PMPS. Not sure what to do.

That's a tough call. Will he eat food if you leave extra out for him?

I retested and it came back at 56. I gave him his food and 4 temptation treats. No insulin. Hope he's ok.

Good call on skipping. I hope he stays safe today. It's nerve wracking to have to go to work when they're low and not be able to check all day.

I would have done the same! Safety first!

I also think you did the right thing! especially since you cant be home to test!

PMPS is 79. Schedule shot time is in 5 mins. Any advice??

Are you able to stay up and monitor and do you have supplies?

I just gave him 1 unit, instead of the 1.75. I hope it was OK. I just didn't want to get him up in numbers. I'll be doing testing tonight for sure!

I think since you skipped the shot this morning a reduced dose is a good idea. I hope he surfs safely for you tonight.
