I'm not able to see a pattern on Beau's response to insulin yet as we are quite new to ProZinc and are trying to figure out a good dose for him that will give him a somewhat consistent curve.
He was showing good response to 0.8 when a few red PS popped up with no green nadirs, so we bubmped him to 1.0 which lead to more red PS's and still no green nadirs. That was a point when I struggled whether to go up or down. Since he showed some good #'s on 1.25-1.5 previously I bumped him up to 1.2 for a few cycles. We got a few green nadirs but also black PS's. So I dropped his dose down to 0.8 again. I try to hold a dose for 4-5 cycles.
His BG yesterday on 0.8 was similar to 8/6 AM when he got 1.0 and 8/6 PM when he got 1.2. I know this is probably not the way to compare BG #'s but he is really not giving me a pattern to dose. He would show similar curves on different doses and also very different curves on the same dose...
Right now he is a mystery to me and I don't know what I should dose him. I would like to hold the 0.8 for a few cycles so we are not constantly adjusting his dose.
We are seeing a blue PS this morning but not sure if it's rising or still falling. Will be posting that shortly. Any advise on dosing this morning? I'm thinking 0.8 if rising and maybe either skip or a skinny 0.5 if still falling but > 150?
