Ferndoc 4/29-30 w/ curve (sort of) and May 1

[Ferndoc]

So last night into today I did a curve (sort of) the tests were not exactly on the 2 or 3 hour but somewhere between every 2-3 hours.

PMPM 356 (2.6u given)
+2 221
+4 110
+6 132
+9 347

AMPS 326 (2u) given
+2.5 275
+5 150
+7 160
+9 315

PMPS 325 (2.1) given

So I find it interesting that his number did stabilize back down a bit this am dropping from 347 to 326. It looks like for now he is heading back up in the 7-9 hour mark but not continuing from 9-12 hours. I upped the PM shot slightly to see what that does.

I think the substitute beans are going to get 1u 230-290, 2u(f) 290-350, 2.5 above 350. It seems like we did have a reduction overall. I can't see giving anywhere close to 3u right now.

I think those ranges sound good, Jane. Maybe not as much as you might give, but safe for caregivers.

And, AMPS was 238, happy dance. So he only got 1u.

Anything different last night or just good luck? Definitely was a slower drop which probably helped. Sure nice to see a lower pmps last night and again this am. I like the lower doses - I think he is a bouncy cat and even when he has a higher number, a higher dose results in too fast a drop and then a bounce (like 4/23)

What a nice number! Glad to hear it!

He followed it up this evening with an expected high number but I figure overall progress.
