Testing him now will post in a sec
He had a decent dinner half can at 8:15 and then a gave him a tbl more an hour later. he was hungry.
Ya I will be up till I feel comfortable. Going to test at +4
That's what i was thinking . It was just kinda of odd seeing him in blue during PMP'S. He definitely keeps me on my toes
Ya when i saw that +4 number drop i was curious to see how low he would make it. Little tired this morning but a got some coffee brewing.
Good morning Suzanne , Good numbers this am but i have a quick question. I have to leave this morning and will not be back until noon. Should i feed him a med carb to be safe since i will not be able to monitor him closely and he isn't used to starting out in low numbers.
When I left he was 300 so I left him out some food. Low carb food since he went up. I think he should,be okay with that number. He is alone..
Yes. I think he will be fine too! I’m happy to see this.
Were in the clear 212. Could be a good start to him be a little more consistent at a lower numbers. Lets keep our fingers crossed. Yayyyy
Me too...It's been quite the journey. Hopefully he's feeling better and those high numbers didn't cause any other issues.
Good Morning Suzanne, Well he made it into the ocean blues AMP'S. Let's see if he gets into the greens. He ate big breakfast 3/4 can of FF and will give snack at +2 etc.
Thank you , I'm little stressed his numbers at +5 were 88 and getting ready to test at +6. I need him to slow down. He might get stressed and go up tho on the way to the vet. Just don't want to worry about hypo when i'm there concentrating on his vaccines and my questions.
leaving about 2:45.. His time is remarkable lol. I can at least show the vet some good progress today and she won't be able to question me to much. Going to test him again at 2:40
89 we should be in clear. Should i post that reading at +7 or if not how should i enter it. Thank you Suzanne
Yes! Awesome surf. If 3 o’clock was actually going to be his +7 then you put 89 @6.75 in the cell and you just have to manually color code the cell green. 6.75 meaning 6 and 3/4 hours.
Do I need worry about mosquitoes getting in the house? Heartworm shot?
I know right... I'm hoping it was the rabies shot. I think it definitely effected him by his behavior today. Poor guy didn't feel his best. Hopefully that shot effect will ween off in 24 hrs and he can get back to those beautiful numbers we saw yesterday. I had thought about postponing the shot since he was on a such a great track with those numbers but decided not too because I wanted them to look him over a bit.
He heard you. Dropped 150 points in an hour. That's pretty fast, could be in for a long night
In one hour or two hours? Two would be okay, I saw the 244 on the spreadsheet at +2
My bad 150points in 2 hours but now just dropped another 100 points in an hour. Ate a nice dinner and i fed him at +2 and +3 doesn't seem to be slowing him down. Hopefully he puts on the brakes soon.
Whenever that happens (drop of 100 in an hour) it’s time to feed medium carb food (more than ten percent carbs) to slow things down. I see you did feed some MC but it looks like it was given at +4 and probably should’ve been given at +3. But maybe I didn’t read the notes correctly. Some people also will try a few more carbs (but still under ten percent carbs) something like a 6-8 percent earlier in the cycle (like what he was doing at +2 last night) to het ahead of things when they’re breaking a bounce. He was breaking a bounce and had downward momentum from that, combined with the insulin starting to kick in a +2 and then the insulin being at its max effect during the early portion of the cycle. It looks good though — the overall numbers. You did a great job of monitoring and you made sure he was safe. First thing I thought when I looked earlier this morning was - oh no, Shawn didn’t get to bed very early last night! Then I thought, Sir Maximus will be high this morning.
Ya I should of gave to him at +3 instead of +4. I didn't realize I was dealing with a double whammy with the bounce along with the insulin.
Thank you
Good Morning Suzanne, I'm a little confused looking at Sir Maximus numbers this am. It doesn't look like he bounced last night and overall thought he had a decent drops in his cycle but yet his numbers went red this am. Just a little confused and trying to figure out why?
