Yeah !!!!! Those green are addictive.

 

[JOJI and Kit]

addictive.

the hope of one is maybe the biggest force getting me out of bed at PM+10/+11

 

[Alicia & Kit cat (GA)]

Oh yay! I agree, those green get so addictive. And it took my Kit so long to get consistent AMPS greens.

 

[JOJI and Kit]

it took my Kit so long to get consistent AMPS greens.

and look at you now. day THREEEEEEEEEEE TJ trial

 

[Alicia & Kit cat (GA)]

Kit and I are both so excited about less testing!

 

[Sue and Luci]

Excellent! LOOOOVE Seeing those green AMPS! That's the toughest one to get to come down!

Go Kit cat Go!

 

[Sonia & Leo]

Whoo-hoo! What a nice green start!!

Have a great day Joji and Kit!!

 

[Wendy&Neko]

Nice start, but to answer yesterday’s question, you still have room for an increase.

 

[JOJI and Kit]

Nice start, but to answer yesterday’s question, you still have room for an increase.

ok, but what should the timing be?
looks like she's bouncing today after the green start.

 

[Wendy&Neko]

Anytime that works for you. You’ve held the dose long enough.

 

[JOJI and Kit]

Anytime that works for you.

ok, so best time for us would be next AM cycle.
we'll go to 5U.
thanks

Nice to see that green AMPS. I hope Kit clears the bounce soon.

 

[JOJI and Kit]

Anytime

and i guess i'm now a bit confused about the notion on not increasing the dose when a bounce is clearing.
since she's bouncing now .... it will be clearing eventually? or?

 

[Wendy&Neko]

You want to try to avoid increasing on the same cycle as the bounce clears - just because it can make a more active cycle. Since she's just started bouncing, it's not going to clear right away.

that makes sense.
i guess i don't have much/any confidence in my ability to identify a clearing bounce.

i know that you thought that kit would be clearing a bounce on 01jul bc you suggested we not increase the dose that AM. https://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB...-pmps-234-2-75-241-4-177.231686/#post-2591373
and you were right.
but what in data gave you the hint? i still can't see it even though i know the info is there...
in other words, i feel like i've been give the exam answer key (data) and i'm still gonna fail the test (best action at best time).

thanks, jw

Bounces are caused by fast drops, or going lower than they are used to. Bounces can take up to six cycles to clear, occasionally a bit longer. That number of cycles can shorten over time, so it's ECID. One June 28th, Kit saw an unfamiliar green. Start counting cycles after that, so the PM cycle after the green is cycle 1. What do you see on cycle six? With the longer stretch of green on the 1st, she seemed to take longer to clear that next bounce.

 

[JOJI and Kit]

What do you see on cycle six?

hello again, green. (07/01)

sooooooo, then today 07/06 AMPS starts the "unfamiliar green" pattern again? and start counting from 07/06 PM for six cycles for a guess as to the next bounce clear, i.e. 07/09 AM cycle?

 

[Wendy&Neko]

You are assuming a cat is predictable?
