Thank you!
That was kind of my thinking, too, I figured 1 or 1.5, wasn't sure which would be better.
That was my first thought when I saw 384, but looking at his SS I don't think he went low enough last night to be bouncing this morning, but since I don't really know yet what I'm doing I could be completely wrong! Obviously, I want to see him have good numbers again today but at the same time, I don't want to set him up for a bounce by giving him too much! This disease just makes me tear my hair out!
I hope the day will finally come when I feel like I have some kind of handle on this.
Okay, that could be it. That's what I mean about not knowing what I'm doing, I didn't even know that he could still be bouncing this AM from yesterday's AM numbers.
Wow! I had no idea! Thank you, I will remember that!
This experience with diabetes certainly keeps me humble, lol. I consider myself to be a fairly intelligent person but when it comes to this I'm floundering way out of my depth and it makes me feel very thick-headed!
Please DON'T beat yourself up, Lucy ... I'm really proud of you for your determination & level of commitment to Squallie's treatment!
I know how frustrating it becomes sometimes, but just remember what is so often said 'round here: "Kitties bounce until ... they stop." 
You are doing GREAT! Really! Just look at where you started, and where you are now. You understand more, you're taking all the right steps. It's just that diabetes is a constantly moving target, and all we can do is keep moving along with it.
.
Thank you! I'm trying, but that darn target just seems to move faster than I do, apparently, lol!
About an hour, I usually test him around 8:00.
Thank you! One unit is probably best, as he tends to go lower at night, anyway.
I agree, I think that's a good idea. Thanks, Mogs!
Wow, she must be really something! Btw, you were in good company last night/ today, Lucy - I didn't sleep at all last night, either. (And just woke up a little bit ago myself.
) 
keeping me up at night; just plain, old insomnia ... <sigh>
How are you getting along with your Bengal visitor? They tend to be a little "different" from other kitties, not necessarily to everyone's taste, lol. I have two; a 3 yr old male and an 11 month old female rescue. I had hoped they would be playmates as they both have much higher-than-usual energy levels, but they pretty much hate each other, and go around the house all day and night making perfectly ghastly, blood-curdling noises at each other. Then there's the fact that I'm discovering that my rescue girl is quite insane; she's a kleptomaniac, steals everything she can get her teeth on, from all over the house, and drags it under my bed; she is a treat thief, she finds them no matter where I hide them, even inside other things, and chews the bags open to eat all the treats; when she's hungry, she's frantically hungry and can't get enough to eat; she gets the zoomies at 2:00 AM, and just after bedtime is her favorite time to start antics or trouble in the bedroom, when I'm trying to sleep. She's like a hyperactive toddler on speed. She drives me crazy. And I love her to death! I love ALL my kitties to death, and feel very blessed to have them in my life.
Oh, you have no idea...,lol! She's a whole other topic, unto herself! (see my previous post) I suffer from insomnia, too, so I can definitely sympathize with you. I hope you get some sleep tonight, too!Wow, she must be really something! Btw, you were in good company last night/ today, Lucy - I didn't sleep at all last night, either. (And just woke up a little bit ago myself.
Although I don't have anything nearly as interesting as a Bengal kitty
Here's hoping you get in some good zzzz's tonight!
Lol, I love their names. Candy is also very thin and bony, and I suspect poor breeding, as well. Khoji is extremely well bred but he is an "early generation," which comes with it's own set of problems. They both make some lovely and some not so lovely noises, chirrups and trills, lovely; and then screaming and screeching, not so lovely! They are both love bugs, just not toward each other; they are sweet and fun and charming to the rest of the world!
Yes, I am, does that sound appropriate? Or should I give a little more?
Me too! He got 1 unit; I'll check him around +2 to get a feel for where his BG is headed. It would be nice for him to have a day where I could give his poor little ears a break, too!
Thanks, Mogs! I gave him one unit this morning, and will undoubtedly give one unit or less tonight, depending on how he does today. Like you, I get very nervous with very low nadirs and I am fully prepared to reduce his dose if/when necessary. And I always appreciate your two penn'orth!
