Others will be more proficient in guiding you but we don't typically used a sliding scale with R. You want to maximize your basal insulin (Lev) so the idea is to steadily and systematically increase the Lev and likewise systematically increase your dose of R. When starting to use R, you "curve" the first 4 hours of the cycle to see how the dose of R is affecting Markies' numbers. The general idea is that the R will pull the numbers down a little. You don't want the dose of R to yank the numbers down so hard that you complicate matters with bouncing.

Hello Silvina,

I see you gave Markies a small dose of R at PM+1 which is good for now.
