finally getting somewhere. lucian (12yr old boy) is still on 3units lantus bid but so far last 3 days: 7/23 amps 292 pmps 333. 7/24 amps 146 (no insulin given here) pmps 523. 7/25 amps 240 pmps 295. he seems to be gradually starting to level out a little. i could be wrong. vet wants him at 4u but im not doing that. not till we have more data. planning amps +6 and pmps saturday. we're getting better everyday and he lets me check now for pmps. not home for daytime nadir. cant figure out how to post new thread. with any luck lucian will have more good level bgs n we canfigure this out. less stress for us all.

Please consider setting up the spreadsheet we use here and logging all your BG test data on it. It's the only way we can track what's going on and give good advice. There are people here who can do it for you if needed.

Also - post all your questions over on the Lantus forum. There are a ton of very experienced people there to help.
