Still dose 2.5? Was not able to do that much testing yesterday. Injection due in 10 minutes.

TIA

Can you monitor? You have shot 92 before which is the same as 84 with meter variance.

Do not fill him up. You may need him to eat every hour.

 

[tiffmaxee]

Yes, provided you can monitor and have plenty of supplies. Not much different than the 92 you shot.

 

[Lori C & Tango]

We will both be here for another 2 hours then we will be gone for 2 hours. If we test before we leave and his # is same or higher, he'll be okay for 2 hours?

Bhooma... no need to worry about food. He's a piggie and will eat as much as you give him. Always been like that.

 

[Bandit's Mom]

I would shoot the full dose, feed and test at +1 and +2. If needed, feed higher carbs before you leave and leave out some more. You'll be back to get a +4 or so?

 

[tiffmaxee]

I think he will be fine as long as you feed some mc before you leave if dropping and leave out food.

Cross post and more cross posts

 

[Lori C & Tango]

Tested again - 127 - gave full dose.

Probably should know but I don't... what are cross posts?

 

[Lori C & Tango]

+1 122

Leaving for a couple hours. Leaving food out.

Bhooma and I answered at the same time so cross posted. At least we agreed.

 

[Bandit's Mom]

At least we agreed.

We usually do!

 

[Lori C & Tango]

Back home and BG is 94. If BG stays about the same, okay to give regular lc food or should we give a little mc?

 

[Suzanne & Darcy]

This is beautiful! Just feed a little LC food to help him surf in green. A spoonful should do it.

Thanks Suzanne. Things are looking up for our Tango

Indeed. Look at all those stretches of blues and greens on his SS

And... PMPS is 168. Hopefully will get 2 more readings tonight and continue the blue/green stretch!

Lori, if I remember right, you also have a ReliOn meter, right? Is there a reason you are continuing with the AT? The strips are pretty expensive. Many of us use a human meter for that reason.

Yes. We use both and AT strips are more expensive. When we run out of AT strips we'll probably just use Relion. With Relion we get the error msg E4 (not enough blood) a lot. Not sure why because you can see the blood on the strip. Regardless, even with the errors, still less expensive.

You might want to keep some AT strips and the AT as a back-up to the ReliOn (so don't exhaust all the strips). In case the ReliOn stops working or you want to crosscheck a number etc.
