Ok, I take your point, but the same risks are there if you have asthma, eczema or hay fever in your family -you MAY be at higher risk, but you wouldn't want to 'stress' about something you might never get. There is nothing wrong in wanting to look after your health in general, but I feel testing when you have been told you don't have diabetes could make you anxious when there is no need to be. Anxiety MAY cause other health problems.
I apologise if I caused offence, but there is a lot of pro testing on here, which I totally agree with, but ONLY if you have been diagnosed as being diabetic by your GP. Self diagnosis is a dangerous thing and I think testing bg when you don't need to is pointless.
