Why are Kitty's curves looking inverted?

[Draíocht]

Kitty's numbers are starting to look lower overall but they're still all over the place and not really getting into a pattern. I'm really confused by the latest numbers we've been having where she's incredibly low at her pre shot tests and we're having to stall for ages before giving her shots, but then the numbers are actually rising in the middle of the cycle. When I graph the data, the curves are upside down. Can anyone help explain what's going on?

I am not seeing inverted curves. Just looking at the last week or so, I am seeing some good lower mid-cycle numbers on several days. On a couple of days I am seeing some yellow flat numbers and the trend down toward PMPS, which is something I see often with a bounce that is clearing. As the bounce starts to clear the numbers trend down.

I think it is important to try to shoot on the 12/12 schedule as much as possible. I see that you stalled a few times until the AMPS was higher. I would rather see you shoot a reduced dose of 1.25 units on a day when you’re uncertain about the pre-shot number. Then you should test to see if it’s too much or too little. I believe it will show you that you can actually shoot the full dose with those mid-blue preshot tests and after you have tested it you will feel comfortable shooting the full dose.

By the way, show me which days and hours you are most confused about so I can see what is most confusing or concerning.

I am really happy to see some better numbers for Kitty! You are really making progress. The goal is to be able to gradually shoot lower preshots, but we get there gradually as you shoot and test to make sure Kitty is safe.

Thanks so much.

Here are some examples:
The 1st of April PM she went from blue to 11.2 when she had her shot, to 17 mid cycle and back down to 11.3 at her next shot.
The 3rd AM she went from yellow up to pink and back to yellow and then same again in PM
The 6th PM she went from blue up to yellow and back to blue and then same again on the 7th PM and the 8th AM

I also don't understand why she's having these mid blue numbers at her pre shot tests anyway. It would be different if she was mostly in blue and green all the time like I see in some people's sheets but she's still having pink and even red numbers sometimes. I wish she would just get into a pattern.

We have been getting a bit braver with shooting while she's still blue a couple of times. Last night was the lowest we have done when she was at 10.1. I think I would be comfortable to do it at lower numbers, as long as they are actually rising and not falling, so I may need to stall just the once to check. I'll try it next time it happens on a day time cycle first. I'm still very anxious overnight.
