Y’all, Nico is stuck in “Pinkalicious Prison,” how do I get him unstuck in the 300s???

The title pretty much says it all... he’s not moving, at all (with variation), since AMPS yesterday, despite 2 cycles on an increased dose. What are my next steps??? (Feel free to take a look at his spreadsheet in our signature)

Hi Emily,

That black looks like a bounce, in which case that might be behind the flat pinks. I wonder whether he might have gone lower than 180 in the early part of the morning cycle on 19 February?

I haven't used Prozinc so I don't know whether new doses need time to settle and whether that might be feeding into today's pinks, whether it might be a bounce that's yet to clear, or something else entirely. Sorry I'm not able to be more specific. :(

Thank you. Deb had a similar response over in the PZI forum too. Holding tight at 1.5u, but the saga continues.. his PMPS was 300 (on the dot— UGH!), and his evening +2 was 344. :banghead:
 
From the Prozinc MPM description "If your cat is in the first 3-6 months of diagnosis, reduce the dose by 0.25u anytime you see a BG below 50 on a human meter or 68 on a pet meter." Nico saw a 41 on 2/14, his dose should have gone down to 1.0 units, not up to 1.5 units.
