New Thread 'Dosing Advise For Tonight ASAP - Big George PMPS 125

 

[Steph & Big George]

Hey there! I dosed a super skinny 1.25u this AM and am thinking that I should have just done 1u since he dropped below 90 last night! He has dropped below 90 again today, so tonight should I just shoot the 1u? Also, just curious of why not to go below 1u? I think it’s because he was DKA/had ketones but just trying to understand/know what to follow/handle since his numbers have been lower! I do see that he starts to rise after +4/+5 but still just trying to take all of this in! Thanks in advanced!

Answering over here so it’s not on the old thread but @Marje and Gracie I’m glad that @Suzanne & Darcy was too! I appreciate everyone’s help on this so much!

As for tonight, am I okay to lower dose to 1u or do I need to stay at 1.25u (I did a super skinny this morning) since he fell below 90 overnight and he dropped below again today? I think that I’m supposed to stay above 1u because he was DKA/had ketones but just trying to understand! I think that all of the lower numbers are a great thing but being two weeks in, I still have so much to learn! Thanks!

He actually earned the reduction last night. New dose 1 unit.

Ketones still low? As long as they are, we can try the 1 unit dose and see how it goes.

Yes! They were LO with AMPS! I will test tonight too! Thank you so much!
