Hello everyone,
How often do you do blood glucose testing? And has the frequency changed over time?
Good day to you all,

Blood glucose testing https://www.carenity.co.uk/forum/diabetes-type-2/your-opinion-on-type-2-diabetes-treatments/blood-glucose-testing-60In the beginning I tested it all the time, to get an idea of the reactions. Also I was scared about hypos! But now, years later I am pretty relaxed. I have found a good rythm and know when and what to eat.
Hi,
My doctor didn't recommend that I check my blood glucose levels at home. But I feel more comfortable knowing that I can, so I do it regularly. I think I would get stressed if I couldn't check it! Does anyone not check theirs? I'm curious how they manage...
My blood glucose level is very unstable even though I keep to a strict diet, so I need to do the testing with every meal. I am struggling a bit with this, because I feel that I am doing everything I can to stay healthy, but even so my levels are unstable. It can be quite discouraging at times.
Hey guys don't forget about this conversation!
Remember that sharing can help us all to cope and prevent!
All the best,
Gilda
I would like to find out if my gp is right for refusing me testing strips and lancets..please help
hi @petemax did he give you the reason? I know this is not uncommon but I also know it is our right to have them so I think you should talk to your gp or somebody else about this
