9/18 Herman pm+11.5 108 amps 200 pmps 302 +6 108 +8 52 +9 142

[Amy & Herman]

Yesterday

Herman woke me up a bit early and I found a BG of 108 guess I need to always take a mid cycle test even if in a seemingly obvious bounce. Not sure how low my boy went….sorry Herm! About 30 min later pmps is 200. There’s a chance the 108 was a bad strip but unlikely as once he zooms from low #’s he really shoots up and his +11 and pre shot are often more than double his +10 (see precious cycle).

A little perplexed. Lc, mc? Hmmm

Its really early in the cycle. Maybe Lower end MC if you have or an MC/LC mix? See what Bhooma @Bandit's Mom thinks.

Thanks…super weird past few readings. I can’t go back in time and retest to see if one was a bad strip so I think I’m gonna do a little bit of a wait and see…. I’ll test again in a short bit and give him a mix of low carb medium carb if still dropping, my mc start at 12%.

If it were me, I would feed the lower side of MC - just like you said - 12%. Herman seems to really be responding to this dose.
Its very similar to the 9/13AM cycle

 

[Bandit's Mom]

Did you feed MC/higher carb LC or did he go up to 207 with just LC?

+2 207 ….so fed lc and will check a +4
…yes, he really is responding to this dose. It’s a bit stressful since on those green days it’s taking lots of mc intervention and monitoring to keep him up but I know it’s important to try to keep him on this dose and “prop him up on the surfboard” to get him healing and used to greens. His bounces clear at a different rate each time which is exciting but it’s really keeping me on my toes! I so look forward to a day we’re he is more stable and predictable, I know if we keep at it we will get there.

Fed lc.

I see that 108.. a pajama party for you tonight! He's not bouncing very much these days. Now all he needs to do is to level out. I'll check back in later.

Pj party indeed. Just got a 52. Fed 15% gravy. After gravy he went to LB and started stalking crickets….hopefully he cooperates in half hour for next poke. His ears not in the mood to bleed.

Stalking crickets is good. Well, good for Herman anyway; maybe not so much for the crickets.

My guys sometimes didn’t like to bleed when their BG was lower.

Yes, I’ve noticed as well. He zooming up now. Amps in 3.5 …time to catch some zzzz’s
