She Dropped to 52 last night. I was on the fence about shorting her since her PMPS was pretty low but it wasn’t below the “don’t shoot” cutoff, so I did. Kind of thinking I shouldn’t have. I was afraid to go to sleep in case her numbers kept dropping. Fed her some higher carb treats and a higher carb food and tested her until her #’s came up to the 80’s and then I went to bed. Ugh! This is so nerve wracking.

When you get a chance please update the ss. It was good for Kitten that you did shoot but not for your sleeping.

I updated. She’s back down to be low again. Is this normal? Obviously I’ve noticed a trend of her gradually getting lower and lower over the past month. Which is awesome! But is it normal for a cat to drop so low so often after being pretty consistent this past month?

Yes, when the pancreas starts working. It just might be coming back. Another reduction earned to 1 drop.

So what would I reduce her to? She’s already super low at only .25

Oooooooooh! Gotcha! You literally meant like a “drop” of insulin.
