Hi Zach

I was just looking at handsome George’s spreadsheet and he’s doing well.

I notice on the SS that you are following SLGS for your method of regulation. Under SLGS, George earns a 0.25u reduction when he drops below 90. That doesn’t mean every time but for each day he drops below 90, he should generally get a dose reduction. From 4/19 - 4/23, he dropped below 90 each day.

We are cautious to not give too many back-to-back reductions as the depot needs to catch up but any time he goes below 90, you should post and ask if he should get a reduction. Don’t just assume it’s ok to not give one because he didn’t drop low and came back up nicely. Missed reductions can become cumulative and suddenly you have a very full depot and the BG crashes.

I’d suggest you drop his dose to 0.75u at the next shot. I know Tim linked the methodology for SLGS but do you understand how increases and decreases work or when to hold the dose?

I hope you can get his dental soon. Let me know if you have any questions.

Could you link the methodology again? Just so I know i am doing the right thing
Also, could it be explained how the increases and decreases work on a 30u syringe? I just want to be informed and be sure im doing the right thing. The little lines are each unit, correct? So .75 is just slightly less than 1 unit on the little lines, yes?

I am just getting my kitty fed so I’ll be back shortly as this will take a bit of time. Thanks for your patience.
