Good Morning LL! I'm just going to call this day 2 of the trial - too confusing for me having started with a pm cycle. :lol: This number concerns me. My DGD's were knocking and banging on my door several times this morning - I shut it this morning to try and get some extra sleep. I'm hoping this is maybe some stress from that? I'll get a +3. Muffin's feeling fine this morning, sitting on my lap right now in between grazing on breffis. My gut reaction was to give a little insulin, but I'm watching the DGD's all day while DD works, so I can't really monitor. I'm thinking I'll wait and see what happens today and tonight, but if I get another amps like this tomorrow, should I shoot? I want to give her all the support she needs for as long as she needs it.

Congratulations on Day 2 OTJ!
Hi Anne, maybe it was the stress of the DGD's knocking on the door. See how Muffin does later after she has some naps. Have a nice day.

Hang in there, Anne! Hopefully some food will nudge her pancreas into action. Always does with our Emperor, even now, on his second stint of OTJ. A stress spike can happen, after all. Try not to get too anxious about one single blip! Maybe just chalk it up to meter variance - that way, it could be perfectly sub-120 :-D

Hugs

Hopefully a nice long cat nap in the sun is all she needs. Paws crossed! :mrgreen:

Keep the faith Anne! Make sure you feed LOW carb food. Go strictly with something like FF chicken or turkey. I recently had a "high number" scare with Tucker, since he's been OTJ.
I was giving him a variety of canned food that I thought was low or no carb. (little tubs of Whiskas pate') He loved them, but his numbers were going up to 160's and even 220.
I immediately switched back to the FF pate's. Numbers came back down! Whew ! Worth a try.
Good luck!

Paws crossed for "it's only a blip".

I, too, give something lower carb like TikiCat chicken Koolina Luau ( 0 %) which always gives me some lower numbers...

Come on Muffin. Don't get stressed!
 
Re: 9/23 Muffin ambg 137 Day 2 +3 106 Uh Oh...

+3 was 106. I'm still not entirely happy with that, but we'll see what the next couple cycles bring. I did discover that she ate a half of a chicken strip yesterday evening, so maybe that's playing a part in this.

Thanks for all the crossed paws! Chris and Rhiannon - Muffin will only eat Wellness Chicken. It's 5% and it's what she's been eating since she went OTJ almost 2 yrs ago. She's a one-food type of gal, unless we're talking people food :lol:

Muffin, stop scaring your mombean like that!

Anyway, DAY TWO!!!!
 
Re: 9/23 Muffin ambg 137 Day 2 +3 106 Uh Oh...

Hey! What is Muffin doing going OTJ and all? Yeah! That's great! Hope she stays the course. Congrats on Day Two!
 
:YMSIGH: Pmbg 104 I hope tomorrow is a better day. Muffin is very social this evening, although she's not very interested in her food. I hear her down in the kitchen - probably scrounging for more chicken strips. :lol: She is definitely feeling better, and that's what's really important.
 
Hi Anne - Sorry for the late visit. A hike day for me, and I am soooooo behind on everything, including condos! Sometimes I don't know where time goes...

Not a bad day for Muffin. They are very low blues... I think that maybe the stress over the DGD etc may be partly responsible... It was good to see that she brought herself down. Greens tomorrow Muffin, 'K?

Hope your day has been a good one!
 
Hi Anne,

You'll have to ask Marje directly but when I was concerned about going from a lower green surf (65-80) to a higher surf ( 80 - 110)
and what/why .....
How do I get back to the lower surf.....

Marje told me that my cat felt the same either way, she didn't know the difference between being at either set of numbers... 50 vs 100.....

It's all GOOD!

:mrgreen:
 
Anne, Rhiannon makes a a good point - I've been given the same soothing feedback about Karre running a bit higher than he did when he went OTJ the first time.

They don't know about the numbers, thank goodness! :smile: Can't wait for Muffin's Day 3!

Hugs
Jane
 
What I said :lol: :lol:

I liked it the first time so I'm glad Rhiannon repeated it.

A couple thoughts....muffin still has pancreatitis so it might take a bit for her numbers to come down where you are used to and sometimes things change. Jane remarks at how different Karres numbers are this time around.
