AMPS 231 gave a fat .25 units. I don't have any u100 syringes and just got 100 u40s, but I am comfortable with the small doses so far. I won't be here for extra testing but might check him before I leave in a few hours.

A ruler with millimeter markings may be used as a reference, lined up to the syringe, so you can use the tick marks to be consistent.

+ 4 115
+7 181

PMBG 175
No shot

Thanks, BJ. I will do that.

Should I start giving a small amount when he is under 200? I see some people give small amount if over 150.

Thanks!

Yes, with a caveat - you can lower your no shot limit if you have test data in the +5 to +7 hours after the shot showing that it is safe, ie that the nadir remains above 50 mg/dL.

I agree with lowering your preshot number. Lower your shot number accordingly and at least the first time, on a cycle you can monitor.

If you don't get the U100s (and he might be OTJ by the time you use a few - anti jinx) then we can experiment with dosing with drops later today with water till you get it down.
