Dr. Bowden said we'll calibrate the dosage, and once it settles, we'll do another test. If all is going well and there is no confusion over what is happening, it'll be a fructosamine test. If it needs more thought or detail, we'll do a 12 hour glucose curve.
Slipping schedule plusminus an hour is okay.
For insulin, just make sure she has eaten. A little later is ok. Can even give while eating.
Feeding her extra is also ok. She might be on the lowest of her blood sugar about 6 or 8 hours after the insulin, so a little pick-me-up would be good.
Keeping track of what she is eating obviously a great idea.
For home-made diet, check in with UC Davis, who might even design a diet for me.
