Both the pre-shot of 120 and the +3 of 74 are in normal, very nice range, The trick now is to keep her within and not to go too low. If you are using human meter the start feeding MC or HC is 50, if pet meter then it is 68. I use Lantus and not familiar with Prozinc but I think it will give you nadir (the lowest point) between +4 and +6. If I am correct you'll need to test frequently until the nadir is over.
Do believe - there is no such thing as too much testing strips!
Great! Good call on Gravy Foods - how much have you given her? Was it just gravy or meat with gravy? ETA: What carbs% was it?
OK, the 3/4 of HC will send her up, most likely, but it is OK - she'll come down eventually. Do not be alarmed at the higher numbers - it is food, not her.
She may begin associating frequent ear pokes with gravy food and tolerate pokes easier after that
. I have no clue why cats go for that gravy!
But thanks goodness they do or we'd be dealing with Hypos all the time.
You are correct, we usually tell new members not to give insulin when PS test is <200. Even someone with a good amount of data, wouldn't give the full dose on a 120 but it's a good experience to get under your belt when you are home testing

I might be of help with Lantus and the lower pre-shots but all I know about Prozinc is from the sticky - not like having actual user's experience.
No one was online who I know used Prozinc, so . here I was...
No problem! I still always check Prozinc forum firstHi Yong, thank you so much for checking in!

That 3/4 of a can of HC most likely going to give Amanda a chance to call it a night. But let's see the next test.
. I will come to you if I get more low PS's with my boy lol. Yes the 3/4 can is probably going to let Amanda sleep soundly 
. Just want to make sure she doesn't give more insulin tomorrow morning, should Mishu have a higher AMPS from bouncing.
You know, for a very very long time I used to think that if I use Lantus that's where I supposed to go with anything, like I never visited Main Health Forum, or the Prozinc Forum - until maybe a month ago or so. I thought if I was Lantus then that was where I post

You're moving around now though!You know, for a very very long time I used to think that if I use Lantus that's where I supposed to go with anything, like I never visited Main Health Forum, or the Prozinc Forum - until maybe a month ago or so. I thought if I was Lantus then that was where I post
. At +5, you're in the typical nadir time for Prozinc and if you don't think you can get another test in like 30 minutes, you could just give her a tablespoon or two of some more HC gravy foods and she should be OK.
That's sounds like a plan, but please make sure you test pre-shot 2 hours without food before giving even the reduced dose tomorrow morning.
I'm very glad you were able to help, Tanya. How we deal with lows is the same for all insulins and it's good for the bean to have someone guide them in the early days.Hi Yong, thank you so much for checking in!

Thank you againnn!!
Was that actually PMPS or at +11? Either way, I think the reduction to 0.5U is a good callPmpt was 205 today. My gut says lower to .5u instead of the 1u I've been giving. She's had no prozinc for almost 24 hours now. Experienced people- do you think that's the right call? @Yong @Tanya and Ducia @Kris & Teasel
. Apologies I'm not around for your PS times but glad Rachel and Kris responded
