Very high NADIR - Somogyi effect?

[Justyn]

Hello all, i've posted about this recently but am confused at what to do next for my diabetic fur ball.. I'm running low on tester strips so hadn't done a curve since last weekend, but just today was going to test him at his +6, +8 and +10 to see how low he was going - but I just got his +6 reading of 393... His true NADIR seems to be more around the +8 mark but should be much, much lower around now.

The only thing that I think can explain this erratic number out of nowhere, would be a recent crash that is causing him to bounce... I've read to help determine Somogyi effect, we should reduce the insulin in 1/2, but I'm worried his BG is just going to be in a too high range to cause issues, such as Ketones.

Does anyone have any recommendation on what to do? I can test him more today but feel that it's just very fluctuated from something as it's never anywhere near this BG at this time of the day..

Please review my spreadsheet and let me know of any other ideas that may be causing these crazy levels..

I know that @Chris & China helped me out a lot with my questions as did mogs @Critter Mom . I'm new here myself but hopefully others will post too with their advice. Hang in there, this is a great community of people

PS. Did you switch the food over gradually or all at once? I know with my cat his numbers are all over if I switch foods suddenly. It's just a thought.

Another idea might be to post a link from here over to the forum for prozinc support group.
