[QUOTE="Thundercat, post: 408082, member: 51047"] I check before eating and injecting and 2 hours after eating. With regard to visual strips - I appreciate that they work for some but I have had diabetes lomg eenough to have used them before meters became freely available and I would not go back. As mentioned, they are not accurate but also give a ballpark figure. For me personally there is a big difference between 4.1 and 4.9. Maybe it's just psychological but I like the decimal point. Not everyone has perfect bg all the time so the notion that they are inaccurate over 8 would give me no peace of mind. I know everyone is different but that's my tuppence worth. I would like to add, at the risk of having my head taken off, that I think it is inappropriate to suggest to someone when they should pm. We are all just pooling our knowledge and the more input the more knowledge we receive.
