I am just glad he is safe. A little bit high today. That is probably a combo of a reaction to last night’s low and the temporary reduction today. How are his eyes today?
Cadmium BG (new years ed.!) AMPS: 364, +6: 369, PMPS: 411, +2: 390, +5.5: 346

His eye was irritating him a little earlier, I think he scratched above it a little too vigorously. He has a tendency to be excessively itchy, dunno why! But no discharge, and looks bright and clear. Antibiotic ointment seems most effective if I'm able to lift his lower eyelid to apply it there- he has either a clogged gland, rogue eyelash, or stye there. We found it around the same time as his diagnosis! It had swelled up again and that's why I thought it was the culprit when he started being gooey lol
I am very glad he's safe, too. Got my partner a present while at the pharmacy as a Valentine's Day/"thank you for staying up all night with me and letting me get some sleep" gift

Either way, he for sure earned a reduction! So the potential max dose for next shot would be 0.75, I guess it depends on what his PMPS winds up being like tonight. If it seems fairly settled bounce wise, prrrrrobably 0.5? Dunno. Guess we will see.

Hopefully he will have a better day today.

His AM+6 was 111 today!! So I think he's doing a bit better!

following his reading of 70 i gave him snacks, called vet to discuss reduction (it was approved), and after eating a spoonful of 15% carb + churu hes at 102

Wow. Cadmium seems determined to get reductions. Good! He would have earned a reduction per SLGS anyway, but I am glad your vet is on board with you.

He’ll probably be high this evening so maybe it’s a good time to give his ears a break or give yourself a break (and sleep if you want to.)

When I told him his readings for this cycle, Dr K said "I don't understand how he went from almost 400 to 70 with not even a full unit of insulin! He's so dramatic!" lol.
Was wanting to make sure the vets were on board after how Dr J initially wanted him back on 1F due to the highs following the 66. To which I said "absolutely not."
Yeah, still will get his PMPS and maybe a +3 to make sure he's still having the insulin take hold considering how his PM cycle yesterday was likely a furshot. Otherwise its rest time for everyone!
