Wow! Nice surprise, especially with the lower dose last night. Maybe she is trying to tell us she needs less insulin.....
Two choices. Skip - not the best option. Shoot a small dose - maybe .2 or .4? And plan to monitor today, at least early on.
I know we have talked about this before, Misty. If her pancreas is starting to work, it makes the numbers/doses less predictable. But it is the way to remission.

I'd do .5 She is headed up. As long as you can get a 2/3 and something around midcycle.

You only need a few seconds around +2/3 and the same around +6. Lots of time in between for yard work and errands.

Can you try to get a few test's in whenever the opportunity arises? It will be great information to have if you are going to start getting lower PS's.

I was doing every 2 hours during the day. Was told to stop driving myself crazy....only test at AMPS + Nadir + PMPS.
This is driving me nuts. I have ADD and am off my meds (cannot afford them)....do you know what is like to have whatever I am doing interrupted???? I never get back to what I was doing in the first place.....everything I start is never finished....going out to do yard work now....ask me tomorrow how far I got!!! :roll:

Sort of a strange number for +3 but maybe means she is going to surf today. Take a break till +6.

Wow! Much better numbers Misty!
I never saw low numbers on ProZinc, but I was amazed to see the low numbers that get shot on Levemir and Lantus. That being said, I've learned that with Grayson I can either delay a shot, or shoot a reduced dose, as the onset of the insulin is much later with Levemir. Skipping only puts him on a steeper roller-coaster and requires a much longer recovery time.
Perhaps some others can chime in here, but I wonder if you might be better off to consider a reduced dose when you have such a low number. (keep in mind, my DNS number on ProZinc was 250!) I'm thinking 50% or even 25% of what you normally shoot. Just to keep RT from climbing back into the reds after a skip. Thoughts anyone???

Sorry I didn't mean you should drive yourself crazy with testing today, I just thought it would be interesing to see what that dose did on a lower PS, whenever you had a chance to test.
