So I can confidently say charlie is now starting a pattern of clearing his bounces faster. His bounce had started by last nights pm cycle and now with his am +2.25 of 158 the bounce has cleared and he is coming down, and so far holding the dose reduction.
+2.25 meal .4mc 12%/.4raw to slow the drops. 82pt drop from amps to +2.25

Woo hoo! Awesome cycle for Charlie today. :mrgreen: And it's always great to see them clearing bounces more quickly. Paws are crossed that the next step will be no more bouncing at all.

How do I recognize that he is not bouncing anymore.

the general pattern i've seen as cats work towards OTJ, is that a cat starts with green nadirs and sometime the time they spend in green numbers lengthens. Next the pmps comes down into normal numbers. Last the amps comes down. Then the dose reductions come faster - although i have to say that not every cat does that. Some bounce all the way to OTJ, and there's nothing wrong with that.

With bouncing, it seems like often as the cat gets used to normal numbers, they'll react less. The lesser reaction means that they both won't bounce as high, and when they do bounce it won't last as long. This afternoon/evening, Charlie only spent 9 hours out of green. That's a great sign.

The last big bounce his had was triggered by the 41 on the night of 9/22. He peaked at 408 the next night, and was back in normal numbers by the morning of 9/24. So that bounce lasted just about 24 hours. the peak was 408.

today's was 9 hours. the peak was maybe 166.

that's progress.
