Compared BG to ReliOn vs AlphaTrak3 meter

Yes, the "rule of thumb" is to test for two hours after the last HC stuff was given to the cat. I'm not sure how long it has been for Charlie. But that's a safety measure to make sure that the cat doesn't drop back down. I'm not worried about this today in Charlie's case, but I would gather as much data as I could today during this cycle. If it has been two hours since the HC, you might want to stretch out the testing a little to give him a break. Although if you want a preview of your PMPS, you might check at +10 to get an idea of where he is.

It has now been 2 hours since he ate that last bit of HC. I had planned to test again but yes, would like to give him a little time, so +10 would be 5:30. If he acts like he has been recently, I would expect him to be near where he started the day, so it will be interesting to see if that holds true. If you think I should test between now and 5:30, let me know and I will.

Do you have this food chart? It's a bit old and some of the newer foods aren't on it, but it's still a pretty good guideline.

I have some other food charts that are geared more toward phosphorus levels (for kidney concerns) but they still have a lot of different foods on the.

Which Weruva foods to you feed? I feed some of the BFF PLAY foods to my cats.

Missed this earlier. Have some of the Chicken Frick a Zee right now Charlie will eat it when it is mixed in with other food. Had identified some others to order once done with that that I had identified from this chart. It was very helpful. He had crystals and was blocked about 9 years ago. Wish these food companies were better about listing carbs and phosphorus. Would make things a lot easier.
