I do a fasting test first up, then before and after breakfast, lunch and dinner.Hi all, how often do you test during the day, I test moring and night, occasionally another thrown in, just wondered x
Yes I thought I'd got it all under control and stopped testing and then realized I had a devil on both shoulders... back to the routineI test 6 times a day as a general rule even though my HbA1c has been under diabetic level for over 4 years.
I'm also not too fussed if I miss any of my tests as my levels rarely vary unless I'm experimenting.
Testing keeps me motivated. I know this because sometimes I have a week or two off testing to give my fingers a treat, and that is when the devil arrives on one shoulder having a fight with the angel on my other shoulder.
