Should Joe's dose be raised

[smorgasbord]

Say if I did one more 30 minute and he is alright and if I were to catch a snooze in the recliner and set the alarm, what would be a good time to check again.

If he’s over 100 in 30 minutes (post number either way) you could probably get away with an hour nap. Fun!

Sorry…..I went off to feed the cats and DH.
Looks as if Joe has might have slowed right down. See what the next test is.
When is it due and when did you last feed him and what did you feed?
Don’t go to sleep yet…sorry

110 and going to snooze for an hour. Thanks for all your help Smorg!
EDIT>
just saw Brons reply. Not going to bed

Joe ate some low carb food, Steak Frites by Weruva. 2 teaspoons of Fancy Feast higher carb at about +3. After I just tested him for the last time at +5 he finished off his tuna bites (for testing) and a small portion of low carb Weruva.

Ok. You need to keep testing him for 2 hours after giving any high carb food so looks like you are about there now….. getting another test in, in an hour is a good idea.
Next time you have a situation like this, make sure you don’t feed him too much so that he stays hungry in case we need him to eat late in the cycle.
You have done well!
See you in an hour.

Alright Joe, what number are you giving mom now? @Susan Pomo

 

[Susan Pomo]

137 at +6

 

[Bron and Sheba (GA)]

137 at +6

How long since you fed any high carb food? And ordinary food?

 

[smorgasbord]

Ya

137 at +6

Yay! I think that means you get to sleep, I hope Bron thinks so too.

He is only getting tuna for testing since +5

I would leave a snack out for him and go to bed.

Looks like last HC was around 10:30 Susan’s time, three hours ago?

You did great today. Remember, when it gets sucky, it means you’re making progress
Night!

 

[Susan Pomo]

thanks all and started a new thread. And I really mean THANKS Smorg and Bron, for riding me through last night

NO. He already scarfed a low carb meal but no matter to him. He readily ate a spoonful of high carb food

He was in perfectly safe numbers. No need for high carb this late in the cycle while in the blues. Is like to see him spend a little time in those dark greens around 80-90. That's when the pancreas can test and heal.
