9/4 Yoshi amps 537 pmps 386 +3.5 374

I can’t find a .75 example. I put the plunger just a little above the one unit mark. I have to get new needles and donate these.

Above the 1 unit marking in the direction of less right?

A suggestion I have seen repeated on the board. Get some food coloring and dye some water and use it to test what looks right to you, waste a syringe on it, if it will help you decide what looks right then it’s not really a waste!

Since I have not been following your situation, I don’t know where you’re at or what barriers you may have, but my Walmarts here seem to have the opinion that if there is any evidence of needing syringes for insulin use, they will let me get them easily without a prescription. 3/10cc .5u markings, etc.... cheap, within perspective (what is cheap is not cheap for everyone, sometimes cheap for me now wasn’t cheap last month!).... $13. For a quantity of 100. It’s worth it just to have *at least* a half unit marking!!

Thank you! Yes, a bit above the 1 u mark less

Sorry this is late, but does Yoshi let you touch his paws at all? Yoda tolerated getting blood from his paws much better than his ears when I first started. I just make sure it is sanitized beforehand.

He could potentially kill me, but I’m curious, do you prick the toe beans or elsewhere

No just in the middle of his paw where the skin is softer, the "palm" I guess. I found I had to use a bit deeper setting on my lance then I would on his ears.

Not gonna lie, I have seen talk of paw pad testing many times before and as agreeable as my Alice can be, I don’t want to try it—and she only has one ear for testing. I may have heard it rumored to possibly be more painful, but that’s only a rumor since I don’t have a valid source or even remember who said what when.

There should be some resources around on here somewhere, and YouTube videos, and so on, should you decide to pursue it!
