113. But he was aggravated. 5 pokes or so. I'm waiting till tomorrow to celebrate. It was a bit higher than I wouldve liked

Yes. Stress can definitely raise numbers. But 113 is still within normal range on a human meter (50-120), so on the AT2, I'm sure he's fine. I wish we coded from 120 on down as green, because I share your green obsession and have to keep reminding myself that "good" goes a little higher than our colors show.

We'll still be here to celebrate tomorrow though!

You have to remember with a pet meter is higher. If you compare it to others, most of them are on pet meters. A 113 on alpha might be a 75 on human.

Maybe that's why the vet told me that he was ok as long as he was below 170? I know typically it's 150.
 
My vet has a higher tolerance for the numbers than I do, too. She said she'd consider him in remission at this point. Some cats do run a little higher, so I think that's why. However, Sam starts to show increased thirst/pee/and even some neuropathy when he's just in the low-200's, so I think he feels better at the lower end of the normal range. ECID.
 
Smoky has long talks with me in cat language nearly every time I test him.;)
Go Yoshi! Silent cheers for green numbers. I told you I think that might be his new favorite color.:bighug:
