AMPS - 199 this is actually a +10

I would go ahead & shoot .6 but we're early so that would mean reducing to .5 since by the time she eats it will be +11. Do I consider also that last night she was only 183 & dropped a bit after PMPS?

And since I'm a bit early I'm going to wait and retest, then I will be at +10.5
 
You sure have tough questions for so early in the morning!!

First things first-- Thumper is doing great! It looks like the .5 was good last night.

Let's see if Robin logs in. I will hang around just in case....I can help.
 
+10.5 - 203

So she's going up....by the time she eats & I shoot it's gonna be more like +11 so do I stick with .6 or consider last night having to wait late & shoot .5? Or was I being too conservative last night by shooting the .5? confused_cat
 
Your numbers are Good-- no way you can think you are being too conservative.

The .5 is giving you consistent preshots. It is your call, but .6 probably would have left you unshootable this morning. You have got back on the 12/12 schedule. I would stick with .5.

You can get more aggressive this weekend when you can test mid cycle.
 
Ok, shooting .5 ...we'll see where that lands us tonight!

I wish I didn't have to but now I've gotta rush to get to work on time!
 
It will be okay! She is feeling better and her number look Great! Even if she is higher tonight-- you can adjust!


Life is Good!
 
Good call, Barbara. I got up this morning and tested, fed and shot and then went back to bed. I have a sore throat and headache today, but it sure felt good to sleep.
 
+ 10.5 - 192
+ - 12.5 - 210

She's eating now...had to go out so I'm a little late. Should I stick with .5, which is what I shot this morning?

Ugh...had to make a decision alone...I stuck with .5

Ginny, hope you feel better! I hate having a sore throat!
 
I would stick with the .5. Very consistent preshots!

You can get more aggressive this weekend when you can test mid cycle. And, you are leaving yourself shootable numbers!


Looks Good!
 
Very nice! Her numbers are good, so if she seems to be feeling ok and ketones are negative, I would give yourself a break and just pick the dose you feel most comfortable with, and then stick with that for the rest of the week like others suggested. Barring lows of course, or a clear trend into higher numbers and losing the good numbers she is getting now. B/c of her rough patches you have gotten into the habit of adjusting with each shot, which can be a great thing, but might not be needed at this point. Take the easy road! :mrgreen:
