hi, Angel's new spreadsheet is finally up. He's getting nice low nadir numbers, do you think his pancreas is starting to work?

I'm cautiously optimistic, if he's doing this well on caninsulin will he do even better on Lantus or PZI? hopefully he will be starting one of them in the week.

At the moment I'm testing him pre shot and also at around +4.30-5 Because I've had to delay his shots a few times as he was under 100, at the moment his pm + 4.30 test is around 4-5am. I keep him in at night, he sleeps on my bed and has low carb food to graze on, but not so he will have too much. When the alarm went off 5am this morning for his test, he seemed absolutely fine, so I cuddled him for a bit and then went back to sleep. Is it ok to do this most nights. Testing him isn't either his or my favourite thing. Of course I will always test pre shot and day nadir because I want a picture of what's going on with him. And hopefully the testing will be easier when I've been taught to freehand.

Still need spreadsheet help. I actually got the new one to publish and then decided to add a text link and the whole thing went pear shaped. Even when I got back to the original link it wouldn't work. The only way I have been able to do it is to leave the url code out and just copy the link directly into my signature. That means that I've no room to include a link to the old one. I've spent literally all day on spreadsheets and ready to scream!!!! The original problem is a fault with the first one I downloaded. Is there any way someone can code them for me? All I've been doing is inserting the link that works between the url coding, and then it doesn't work!!

:evil: hates working with spreadsheets
 
There are 2 links: 1 where you can edit the sheet and the other when you choose to share it.
Did you use the link from publishing the spreadsheet or the one when you publish it for sharing?
 
I tried both!! Just now it was the publishing one and that worked without the coding, but I've changed to the sharing. It works but if I add the url coding it stops working. ohhh, if I never see another spreadsheet it will still be too soon x
 
oh BJM, I've almost been in tears over these spreadsheets, spent so long on it. BUT...just now I tested Angel (late because of the ss's, +5.30 after his shot) and he was 4.3 (77) and suddenly it was all worth it!!!
 
it works now!! I tried that before, maybe I kept adding an extra bracket or something.

Angel just tested at 10.5 (189) so I've given him a load of low carb food and will wait a bit. I sooo don't want to test the poor baby AGAIN tonight but if he's over 200 and is fine at 5am I won't give him his nadir test. x
