Assuming low reading was because she didn't eat her breakfast! She seemed to be eating it when I left kitchen but she then didn't! Realised when we tested her mid morning, now she is wolfing down the 2nd breakfast (another FF pate). Should I give her some gravy too to boost her up a bit or is her BG ok for now?

 

[Katherine&Ruby]

Yes, give a little gravy, that is a big drop!

 

[Roxy & Deb]

Have given gravy from can of FF GL Beef which is highest in carbs. She lapped it up super quick but had already almost finished her pate. I hope it still picks her up quickly.

 

[Roxy & Deb]

Will test again in 30 mins

 

[Roxy & Deb]

Now she's eating the rest of the can LOL. Figured if she's still hungry I should let her.

 

[Roxy & Deb]

Still not coming up from quickly, put a bit of maple syrup on her paw.

 

[Katherine&Ruby]

You're doing well, Deb. Please keep your thread title updated so that we can keep up with Roxy's numbers.

63 is a safe number.. I would not give any more gravy or honey. Test again in 30 minutes and if the number is under 50, then you give some high carb and or honey. If she is surfing along in the greens (above 50) give her a small snack of low carb to keep her surfing. Test more frequently when she is in low numbers if you are not sure she is rising, and when she is rising move to hourly.

4.3 (77) at 12:22 - 45 mins after last one. Will test in an hour or so.

Deb because you fed some high carb food, I would test in 1 hour because when the high carb food wears off the BG could drop.

 

[Roxy & Deb]

Ok.. will try .. she’s so over this right now.. hissed at me last time..

 

[Roxy & Deb]

Remember too she also had her breakfast as well as the higher carb gravy etc, so I hope she continues to stay steady. But her nadir is around 1pm so maybe.

 

[Roxy & Deb]

113 (6.3) now.

You should be fine to leave off testing now. Take a break until PMPS
