Good morning! Dex is at 91 @AMPS. Gave drop dose.

This is his 8th day on a drop dose. Does he still need more consistent numbers before adjusting further?

If you set the autofeeder for 3 am would he eat it do you think? You could then set it to turn again at 4 am so he couldn’t eat for the 2 hours preshot.
Trying the 3 am feed is a way to see if you can bring down the AMPS as it should stimulate the pancreas to produce some insulin and bring down the AMPS.
There are no further dose adjustments to make after the drop dose, except OTJ trial and we need to get the AMPS down further before that.
He’s doing really well.

I can set the auto-feeder for those times. It's hard to say if he'll eat at that time or not without me guiding him to the food, but we can see!

I think the (possible) furshot yesterday morning was keeping him a little higher, but a lovely all-green cycle again today!
