I SCREWED UP and forgot to reduce her insulin this morning .
I tested her at the normal time and she it was 30, the retest was 33. I decided since I will be mostly home the next 2-3 days, I would feed her (615am EDT) and give the shot 2 hours later with the intention of walking back the shot time 30 mins a day. When I tested at +14 and got the 87, I gave her the shot BUT I DID NOT adjust the calipers and completely forgot to reduce the dose. So she got the full 1.87

ETA - the question - How badly did I screw up?

Wow, she has a way to wake you up!
I would think since you are home, it's probably fine, you can feed her HC if needed and monitor her closely. And she seems to have been rising fast!
Have a good day!

Woah, Cleo, that's quite a drop, ma'am!

I have complete faith that you'll be able to manage this mornings dose, and folks are here to be with you as needed! Mornings are the ones where I find I'm more likely to make an error. Ya know, cuz we're all perpetually sleep deprived.

33! Goodness Cleo! But I echo the above sentiments, you've got this. You'll keep her safe.

Thanks All. She refuses to come out for a test . I spoon fed her 7%. I felt like @Amy & Herman chasing after her.

Don't worry about it The depot anyway takes a few cycles to adjust to the reduction.

What Bhooma said. Just keep checking as she could come down again although I doubt too low if at all

 

[carfurby (GA)]

You'll be fine. You're home to test and keep her safe. Make sure you take the reduction tonight.

 

[Mikanmama (Mikan GA)]

Wow, great work Angela!
We all have an oops moment, particularly when sleep deprived like @Alicia & Kit cat said, but you handled this so beautifully!
