? dosing advise needed Yemala 11/29 AMPS 119; +3 53; PMPS 103; +2 117; +5 91; +7 95

She dropped to 53 at +3. I think we were seeing a true mini-bounce earlier this week, and I should remember that her bounces last around 8 cycles, not 6.

Question to experienced advisors - she's been on a drop of insulin for quite some time now. It's nudging her into good numbers, but I'm wondering how long before we venture an OTJ trial. Is she still too high for PS numbers?
 
Yes, keep this dose and hope that the PS numbers come into green. If they don't, later we could discuss doing a 2-drop dose. I don't know if that is less than 0.1u, but it's something to think about.
 
You're all echoing my thoughts. It just seems like so little insulin now that it's almost nothing at all.

Isn't a .1 around 3 drops? I don't know whether we can pull 2 drops - seems a mighty fine line and I'm not sure it would be reliably consistent.
 
PMPS = 103. Sure ya wanna mess widdit? I'm not. I believe I'm gonna stick with a drop for tonight. BTW, what we're calling a drop is basically pullling a little insulin in & out a couple times in order to squirt all the air out, until the plunger rests lightly against the end of the bottom of the syringe; what we're shooting is the insulin that lay within the length of the needle (which I hope I scarcely need mention is teensy-beensy), propelled by the little bit of squishiness attributable to the plunger being made of Acme More-or-Less Rubber.
