Hi! I'm new to this forum and to testing. It's been a little overwhelming trying to understand these numbers! My cat Bingley has been on Lantus for 7 weeks and has stayed at 2 units throughout. I finally started home testing over the weekend, plus did a 12-hour curve on Monday 9/5. He stayed in the mid-200s.
- Is this a sign of insulin resistance at the current dose?
- What about the bounce-y numbers on the previous Sat?
- I don't think I've found his nadir yet, but is he looking like he needs an increase? If so, it would be in 0.25+ increments?

(In the hours between +2 and +5, some workers came to the house. He was spooked and semi-hiding. Not sure how much that affects the numbers.)

Thank you for your help navigating this data I have!
 
I’m not sure. Could have been lower at +3/4. Since you are seeing a blue I would wait the full 7 days to increase and let the depot build. BUT I was looking at your ss which just has 5 days of data and thought this was week one. It looks like you have given insulin mid July so you could increase. I saw this too late so unless you see lots of blue or green increase tomorrow. If no insulin has been given you could tonight.
 
Welcome to the LLB, Li and Bingley. Glad to see you over here getting expert advice from Elise and company. They saved me and saved my boy Hendrick! I can't recommend following their advice enough. It can be tough sometimes and scary but worth the effort imo.
