Due to the winter coming and the fact that they have started putting me on a few nights :sad: I need to get Buttons on a later dosing time. She is now on a 6:30/6:30 time frame. Can anyone give me some pointers to get her on a 9/9 time frame. I need to push her 2.5 hours later at each shot time. Any help is appreciated. :mrgreen:

Hi ________ (we have been talking back and forth on Health, but I don't know your name. 
) I post on this forum and on Health. This forum is much smaller and it may take awhile to get answers back, but everyone here has experience with your insulin and it is a good place to get dosing help. It may also help for you to look at other's spreadsheets and see how they have worked with ProZinc.
The best way to move her times up is to shoot 30 minutes later. So shoot at 7am in the morning. Then that evening, move it up to 7:30. The next morning up to 8. It means she might be a little higher than usual, but 30 minutes shouldn't make a huge difference. If you can take a little longer to make the switch - like 7/7 for a few cycles and then 7:30 and 7:30 for a few cycles etc., you are less likely to see differences in her numbers. If you have the freedom of a couple weeks, that would be the best way to do it.

Will do it slow. Have about 2 weeks, with my daughter working nights now we really need the later time. She is generally home till 10 or 11 in am so even if I work am she can care for Buttons. She is doing really good. Numbers staying lower. Will post today's tmr am. Thank all. Only want what's best for her.
