Hello all,

It's official. The vet agreed, it's time for an otj trial. He's gained back 2 pounds in six weeks! and 23 hours after his last drop of lantus was at 59bg! Whoooppeee!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
Congrats on starting a trial. Here are the instructions we use (courtesy of Libby):

Test at your normal AMPS and PMPS times. Feed multiple small meals throughout the day as much as possible (small meals are less likely to overwhelm a newly functioning pancreas).

If he is green at your normal test times, no need to test further until the next "PS" time, just feed small meals and go about your day. If he is blue, feed a small meal and test again after about 3 hours. If his number is lower 3-4 hours after a meal, then his pancreas is working!

Sometimes the trial doesn't work the first time and we have to give a little more support in the form of resuming insulin. It's not the end of the world if that happens, we just give him the support he needs. Our goal is a strong remission and it's better to take our time to get that than to rush into remission just to have it fail later on.
 
What a bee-yoo-tif-ul spreadsheet! I want one like it!

Congratulations, and may it last! :thumbup
