Last night at 176 and I gave .25u - looks like that didn't do much...

I am ordering 1/2 unit u-100 syringes today so I can starting micro dosing and hopefully find what can get her into the green numbers. In the interim I "might" look at the u-100 syringes I have now which are not 1/2 doses and see if I think I can get 1/2 doses w/o loosing my nerve.

I am ordering these needles http://www.americandiabeteswholesal...-needle-31g-310-cc-516-in-box-of-100_1316.htm I was going to order the ones Sandy (&Tommy) suggested but these are the 1/2 units and I think a better deal per syringe cost....

I will have to get use to the short needles - the u-100 I have now are short needles and that's the day I tried to give a dose and got a fur shot. The little runt has very little loose skin! :evil:

You know what I will say :mrgreen: You can't really know what the dose did without those midcycle numbers. She could have dropped into the greens and bounced up. I know you can't get them all the time, especially overnight. Just be careful about basing decisions on pre shots. It's only half the picture.

That's true...I guess I really haven't done enough mid-cycles to get any kind of picture of how her numbers fluctuate. Patience is not one of my best points :roll:

Also I get confused on when and what number I should shoot on - I need to sit down and look at her spreadsheet and "try" to get an idea on good ranges/doses for her. :-|
