Sorry I did not see this morning. If you skipped the shot the BG may be higher this morning and continue with his normal schedule. If you have his shot late, then you should adjust this mornings shot time so you have at least 11 hours between shots. You may need to gradually adjust the other shot time to get back to your normal schedule.

thank you so much!! We did it at 10:30pm, and then 10:30 am and will be backing it up by 30 min each dose now to get us back on schedule the next few days!! THANK YOU
 
It's best to adjust the dose in either 15 minute increments per cycle, OR 30 minute increments per day.
 
Agree with Dyana, limit it to 30 min per day, otherwise it'll be like giving over full dose of the last shot.

Thank you and Dyana. Pardon my ignorance..but I need a little clarification. SO he gets one unit at 8 am and one at 8pm ( usually) each day. We did it at 10:30 last night, and 10:30 this am, and were planning on starting the back up processs with his insulin tonight. So do we do it at 10:15 tonight, 10 am tomorrow, 9:45 tomorrow night, 9:30 the following morning and so on until we make it back to 8:00? Is that the way? THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH

Correct! OR you can go backwards 30 minutes once a day (so 10:00 tonight, 10:00 tomorrow AM, 9:30 tomorrow PM, 9:30 the next AM, 9:00 the next PM, etc). Whichever is easier.
