Hypo event first time UPDATE PMPS

Now it's 76 but from what I learned that's a food rise, not a true rise?

did a touch of maple syrup, some broth she did drink, didn't want any more gravy food
she usually bounces it doesn't make sense! if you wanna take a peek at the trend later to possible overall lowering of the dose? although she does well so far on 1.5, 1 didn't lower it enough at the time

good! You can just wait it out another 20-30 min and test again. 43 on a human meter isn't super low and you caught it quick.
 
I don't know how long she was like that or how low it had been, I just got home and always check around 330. never dreamed she'd drop, since this morning was pretty high

Could be a little of both...the food would have helped her glucose go up, but at some point, her liver may kick in and release stored sugars and hormones to bring her back up too....that's the "bounce" we talk about here

good thing you checked. Can you add your spreadsheet to a signature? Just go to your name at the top, and click signature... then copy and paste your ss address in and hit save.
also it needs to be updated.
 
Terri.....once you have somebody's attention, you can take the 911 off. Just go back and edit your subject line and choose "No prefix"

That way, IF something were to happen again tonight, we wouldn't think it's the same 911 (and people just coming online won't see this one and have their heart skip a few beats)

You could probably wait and get a +11 now that she's up to 97.....that will also give us some time to decide on a PM dose
 
Cleo has earned a 0.25 unit dose reduction. If you think she's going to bounce by your PMPS test, I would shoot the new reduced dose.

currently 241, can I skip pm shot, or reduce

Test again at PMPS time....I'll bet she's even higher....but she's earned a reduction in dose by dropping below 50 today so her dose tonight would be 1.25

You'd hold that 1.25 dose for now until she either earns another reduction or it's obvious she needs more.

You've changed her dose so much that it's hard to know what's going to happen right now so just hang in there!

This disease is a marathon, not a sprint. Cleo didn't become diabetic overnight and it's going to take time to get her into better numbers.
