[QUOTE="Mep, post: 960400, member: 211362"] omg... sorry to hear this. You're on an oral med that can make you prone to hypos. BGL testing is a must and it should be done several times a day, not twice a week. It just goes to show that some medical professionals have a complete lack of understanding about diabetes management. I was also told I was only supposed to test twice a week when I was first diagnosed. But when I was put on metformin only I was told to test every morning. Then when other drugs were introduced I was told I had to test several times a day. In my opinion all diabetics should be regularly testing several times per day.... how on earth do we know how to control our diabetes otherwise? smh. [/QUOTE]
