“I don’t always get good numbers, but if I feel like it, I do...”
So today’s numbers ain’t so good, all joking aside.
We got a real wonky mid-day number and overnight wasn’t so hot either.
Last night we shot 2.8 units.
Overnight + 4 220
+6 231
+9 271
amps this morning was 280, shot 2.8 again
+7.5 today 313
Yeah, 313. I couldn’t believe it either. We had a client here today so couldn’t get a test in until +7.5, but we were here with Asher all day watching him and he acted normal, ate normal, snoozed normal, etc. I know there was no fur shot because I always feel around on his fur to see if I feel any wetness.
So, did he go low this morning and then bounce? Does he really need a lot more insulin? Does he need less insulin? I don’t get it. And I feel helpless that I can do nothing now (2pm) until 6 pm to get these numbers down.
Any suggestions for tonight’s dose ??
Edit:
We shot 2.8 again tonight. I guess we’ll have to reassess in the morning. If he is high again (in the 300’s) do we reduce or increase?
