Be VERY careful on how you get your doctor to write your supplies. I swear my prescription says to test 8-10 times a day.
Medco has choosen to interpret this as test as many as 8 times a day and is sending me 7 boxes of 100 test strips. Instead of 9.
At least so far, they have not tried to get me or the doctor to change brands.
I check — between January 1 and January 15, I had 129 entries in my log. That means I have been testing 8.6 times a day.
Typically I check when I wake up. Two hours after meal. If I am driving without eating or checking. Before and after exercise, and sometimes during if things aren’t right — I tend to go low exercising.
Yep, that’s a lot of holes. Bring on the continuous blood sugar monitor device. PLEASE!
