DC has been doing ok except his numbers have been all over the place.
I keep thinking I should increase his dose and then he gives me a green nadir.
I'm not sure what to do. If anyone has any ideas about his dosing, I would appreciate it.
I will try to get a full curve in before the week is out.
He's really been enjoying the lake. I hate to bring him home, he likes it so much there.
He's been very playful and eating well.
Today he got into some BBQ pork around AM +8.
All P's are in place.

Even thought DC is giving you some intermittently green nadirs, they are not typically low greens. You have some room to fatten the dose.

Thank you. Do you think I should go to 1.5u or in between 1.25 & 1.5u?

Good luck with the increase...I hope it gets DC back down into Green.

I increased DC's dose to 1.5u for his PM shot.
He ate well after his shot.
Now he is tearing through the house playing with his favorite toy.

I was actually thinking between 1.25 and 1.5u but just monitor the 1.5u dose. Since DC is a long term diabetic, you may want to consider decreasing by taking only a drop or two off of the dose (i.e, a "skinny" dose or shaving) in the future.
