Boo is getting her dental today....

Because I suspect that tooth pain has been effecting her numbers, I'm thinking it will be a good idea to drop her dose back to 1-unit until I see some post dental numbers. Does that seem like the right thing to do?

I think most people reduce. Here is a great thread with info

Very helpful. Thank you!
The vet called. They found roots of 2 teeth that were inflamed... (one upper right and one upper left). The teeth were gone, but the roots were still there wreaking havoc. I adopted her as a rescue 1-month ago, so have no idea what her pain free disposition is like. I hope it's an improvement over what I've been getting from her. Even if her attitude doesn't change, I'm hopeful that her BG tests will improve.

If they were inflamed and you kind of held her head while taking BG there could have been some "discomfort."
