I checked my kittys BG about 10-15 mins ago and it was 129. I have learned to hold food so I am and will test again here shortly. I’m wondering at what number is it safe to give insulin and if I should skip? I did already skip this morning if you look at the sheet, and I was advised last night to start doing .25u but again, she was too low this am to administer that.
Reminder I use the ReliOn and use vetsulin.

Update: I waited 25mins and re-checked her BG and it was at 138. I’m still unsure what I should do. Still trying to find out how to make a new post on that message board.

update #2: it is 20 mins after she has eaten and an hour since her first BG check. I finally figured how to post. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZWu4_1eupjpBMKWC4OjGfzf1nXNR11ecro7EkOgJVus/edit
 
Hi Ashley! Kim, from FB!

I’ve been looking for your post for a bit here and it finally showed up!

It looked like your post had a mod badge (in your screenshot, I wonder if it got held up for some reason and I think that’s why I was getting an error from your link - but it works now so you did it correctly.

Tagging @Diane Tyler's Mom who might be able to to help you get set up here :)

I see you were advised to drop the dose to 0.25 units because Tessa dropped below 90 on your previous post which I linked above

She still needs some insulin. Are you home during the day/night or do.you have to work/leave the house?

I would try 0.25U next but you'd have to be around to monitor.
