Dosing advise please for tomorrow morning

[Stephanie91215]

My girl has been doing great. She was on .37 for a bit and was doing great and then started dropping in 80's within the first 3 hours. I made the decision to go with .25 to see what would happen. She went high for about a day and then back to blues. Now tonight she got .25 and dropped to 55 in 2 hours. Should I lower her dose further?

Have you decided yet which dosing method you want to follow? If you have, please put TR or SLGS in your signature. More details on your last post here http://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/threads/question-about-dosing.211163/

Whether you are following SLGS or TR determines what to do next with the dose. With TR you would hold the dose unless she goes under 50, with SLGS you would lower it.

Here's is your last post for continuity and history http://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/threads/question-about-dosing.211163/#post-2341619
I see you tested at +3 and got a 65. These are great numbers, I'd hold the dose if you are following TR. With SLGS you would reduce...

I am trying to feed her low carb food after every time I test her. I'm not sure what method to follow. Reading about them I'm tempted to say SLGS just because it's a bit safer I think. This is a new problem but a good problem to have I guess. Maybe her body is starting to heal a little

Just got a +4 she is 78. It's been about 45 mins since she finished eating. How long should I continue to monitor tonight to be safe?

If she's coming up on her own without higher carbs, you can go to sleep. The guideline is two rising tests without carbs.

Okay. Thank you. I'm scared to say the r word but for the first time she actually might be heading that way.

Regulation is fine to say, it’s what we all want.
