7/31 Jack 216@AMPS, 242@+5hrs am-increasing to 9.5tomorrow

[Jack & Mopem'sMom]

Well, I guess we are going to 9.5 units tomorrow. I will be calling the vet clinic to see if the bloodtest results came in, and to see what the plan is going to be going forward. Jack's numbers came down a bit, but are still too high. I'm working two jobs now, and having a harder time getting as many tests as I'd like. Thankfully Monday and Tuesday are still just one job, work from home all day, so they remain the best days for increasing his dose as I get the most visibility into his numbers then.

Will post results as soon as I have them, clinic doesn't open until 9am EDT on Monday, so there will be a post on his numbers in the morning and then a comment with what I get back from the vet sometime after.

Thanks all, hope you are all having a good weekend.

You had the vet visit on Monday the 18th for the blood draw. There's a good chance the blood didn't get to MSU by Tuesday, which is when they need it to run the IGF-1 test which they only do on Wednesdays. So the blood would have been tested this last week, it's run overnight. And results are available on Friday and usually faxed/emailed to the vet that day. Sometimes the IAA test is a little before or after. But there should be results by Monday.

Sounds like a good plan on the increase timing.
