AMPS = 131 @ 7:25AM

0.4 unit @ 8:00AM

THOUGHT FOR TODAY: Want to try doing PMPS @ 6:30PM instead of 7:30PM so I can get the feeding hoopla done earlier....maybe I can get to bed before 8:00PM instead of 9:00. Might have to work into it little by little...hope it doesn't mess up AMPS if I do this.
 
It is interesting how she reacts when you shoot a falling number. She usually goes up for nadir. But it always makes me nervous....

Her numbers are so volatile. Who knows what things will look like at pmps? But hope number is rising. nailbite_smile

Replied on other thread. Probably confusing, but I tried.....

It seems that all along, it is Fooooood (and she sure does chow it down fast) that always made her number go up. Knowing this and because I HAVE A LOT OF DATA <<<NOTE IN CASE NEWBIE READS THIS POST>>>> that I feel confident shooting a falling number....as long as it hasn't fallen way too much.

Example:
If we look at her PMPS scenario on 11-13-13.
150 @ 7:45PM ----- this was a falling number ----- +6 was 165
129 @ 8:05PM
Gave food after 8:05PM test
155 @ 9:00PM
Shot 1 drop @ 9:10PM
184 @ 1:15AM

I would like to collect more data on how food affects her numbers....like test-feed-test for a week or so....but I have to keep my budget under control :roll: It is bad enough feeding 7 kitties Friskies/FF 3 to 4 times a day....I try to use minimal number of test strips as possible.

I printed out your post on other thread...will read it when I get back from errands....guess what ONE of the errands is for !!!! :roll: :roll: :lol: :lol:

157 @ 1:00PM (+5)
At approx. 12:30...snatched a few bites of Friskies leftover from breakfast that I put on top of microwave....damn....almost killed myself running downstairs to catch the little 'food vacuum' . :roll:
 
Re the schedule. As she has been lower for amps than pmps, you can do the 11/13 thing. Shoot at 6:30 pm (as long as number is high enough) and then at 7:30 for amps - might her a little extra time to come up in am?

I would do PMPS "test" at 6:30PM ----- then feed ----- SHOOT between 7:00/7:15PM (as long as number is high enough).
Only thing I am concerned about is the timing of her AMPS test + shot....as you know, due to goofy work schedule, that would vary anywhere between 7:30AM and 10:00AM. :roll:
I would always try to get a test before I leave for work. Silly RumpelT.....she actually DEMANDS one at that time. :lol:
If this works, I would like to keep her schedule this way.....well....until my goofy schedule changes. ohmygod_smile The HOLIDAYS are coming. ohmygod_smile
Good thing I have lots of data and pretty much know how her numbers go.

Let me know what you think. :smile:

BTW.....would I keep using her same scale for this scenario?

Bean is having a stupid-moment ----- What do you mean by "...the 11/13 thing"? Geeee....guess I still have a lot to learn. ;-) :lol:

I think the scale is working fine. 11/13 means you shoot at +11 and +13 instead of 12/12. So one shot is an hour early, one is an hour later. It is sometimes used when a kitty is consistently high one preshot and lower on the other.
 
It seems like RumpleT and Simon are both getting wonky numbers that make no sense. I shoot into lower numbers too because I know how Simon reacts most of the time and I am comfortable giving him insulin until he drops under 120 or so. Hopefully we can get down low enough where we can cut this dance down to a minimum (or NONE)

Silly sugar-cats they are....like to drive us bonkers. :lol:

Simon doesn't have any pinks or yellows like RumpelT. Hmm....Simon likes "boy" colors and RumpelT likes "girl" colors I guess. Damn it RumpelT....put on your tomboy fur...we want all BLUES & GREENS. :lol:

It is nice to have lots of data and know how the react. I agree with wanting (desperately) to stop the sugar-dance.

I put a bolded/highlighted disclaimer on RumpelT's ss indicating that dosing/info/etc. is for RumpelT ONLY, so if a newbie happened to look at how I dose they don't do it that way. I indicated that they could browse around it as an example of the highs & lows of her sugar-dance. Highs & Lows?????....It's the LIMBO dance..... :lol:
