[QUOTE="iHs, post: 963360, member: 8799"] Laura, 4 bg tests per day is the very basic minimum that an insulin dependant diabetic using basal bolus, should do so make sure that you dont control your bg too tightly which will probably have an effect on your ability to recognise the hypo feeling when bg levels drop. If your bg control starts to change, then you should test mid morning and mid afternoon to see what bg levels are and if lower than ideal, then food can be eaten to prevent a hypo coming on before the next main meal is eaten and the next day, bolus insulin can be reduced or a bit more carb eaten to ensure a better level.
