9/23 Jasper AMPS 373 +6 214 PMPS 68

If you can get a couple of tests in, feed and give the shot. Sometimes stalling without food can cause his numbers to drop.
If you can't stay up too late, you can always feed a little higher carb to keep him safe.
 
@Bandit's Mom He is at 85 now about 10 min later without food, gunna feed, test again and give his shot. Honestly I was supposed to go see my husband play music tonight so I am pretty sad about it. I'm almost tempted to feed high carb and just go for link and hour and a half but i also think i wont have fun and will just worry..

You might want to go earlier in the cycle and back be back for later tests. The insulin will not be onset till 1.5 or 2 hours after the shot. Feed some more HC before you leave.
 
@Bandit's Mom Great, well I am glad I stayed home with him after all. It's always more important to take care of our little cuties! He brings me so much joy that I never mind doing what needs to be done to take care of him. Thanks for your help and guidance the last two nights. Do you think I should still keep him on this dose?

True :bighug: But you also need to take care of yourself. This is a marathon and not a sprint, so it's important that you make time for yourself as well :-)

Yes. Hold the dose. He needs to drop below 68 to earn a reduction. I know you said he gets a meal at +6. Does he get any food between AMPS and +6? And after +6? If you go by the pattern of the last 2 days, he seems to head down through the AM cycle and nadir at PMPS. I wonder if feeding a small snack at +2/+3 and again at +8/+9 might slow him down in such cycles?
 
@Bandit's Mom it has been that way the last few days. I can try feeding small snacks at those times today to see what happens. I am not sure if thats been a pattern in the past, It hasn't ever happened like that that I can remember before but its worth a try anyways. I honestly was fine with not going out once I decided not to last night. I am pregnant so going to a bar is not as appealing as it used to be and I also have a condition that causes sensory overload in crowds and loud spaces so I kinda realized I was fine with skipping it once my friend texted and said it was crazy busy there too.
