9/2 Pumbaa - surfing in the blues and greens, mostly!

[Pumbaa]

I'm so tired i can barely type, but am so pleased that Pumbaa surfed in the low blues/high greens today, no matter what I missed when I was away from home due to errands that I needed to run.
I love when Pumbaa surfs like this!

I have some thoughts but I've been such a zombie I can't even *think* in complete sentences let alone type. ohmygod_smile

Did you figure out the syringes? I still say you should try the terumo. I think they are a game changer and Marje found them to be more accurate. But you never know until you try.

...I mean, seriously, where did that bounce to 480 come from last night? As far as I know, he stayed in the high greens during yesterday's AM cycle, and he didn't get any HC or anything, but he had his biggest bounce since 7/27.

If he starts the "bouncing off the bounce" thing again, then you probably need to go back up a bit. I suspect it's diving from the high that sends him so low. The lower he starts (as in green for 17 hours) the less steep the dive and ultimately slightly safer surfing. But then it seems to require more testing so don't quote me on that either.

And as you finish the last Solostar pen I see no reason at this point not to consider Levemir.

Hopefully by then we will better see how it's working for Chip. For him it's clearly better than Lantus.

Do I ever understand. *LOL* I can't believe I've been doing the very detailed work I've been doing when I've been a zombie for weeks now.

I think I figured out the UltiCare syringes but they suck! They are too stiff to do drops, and even when you think you got all of the air bubbles out, air bubbles remain. I should be able to afford to order new syringes this coming week, and will never, ever, ever order the UltiCares again. I might test out the Terumo's and also order the Monojects as I was very happy with those.

SuZzzzzzzzzzzzze (just finished work for the day and haven't had time for a short, rejuvenating daytime nap in way too long)

I'm so torn, before I start the 5th Lantus pen. I don't want to have to start over like you did with Chip, and go through weeks of high numbers again, with no guarantee that Pumbaa won't bounce and dive on the Levemir like he does on the Lantus. I have a couple of weeks to think this through and make a decision. Just the "no sting" when injecting is a good enough reason to switch, but not at the cost of getting Pumbaa's pancreas in healing mode. I just don't know.
