Hey everyone, I've added a picture below, I'm just wondering if anyone knows where I can get these blood glucose diaries from?Screenshot_20181107-224434_Gallery.jpg
 
Look on eBay, home monitoring diary or similar. You could always make your own on word if you have it.
 
I think if you use their BG meters they'll give them to you. Can't be many people using paper diaries now?

Abbot gives them out as do Accu-Chek, GP surgeries and pharmacy's also have them avaiable.

Most good meter manufacturers have the software to upload the bgl readings from the meter to your computer.

So they are not hard to get.

Exactly! Uploading blood glucose levels is great but you can't beat writing them down in a neat little diary!

I remember the nurses always being slightly moody with me for not writing my blood glucose levels in the diary, now that I've been doing that, everything has become all high tech! Still love the diaries though, especially the Ancensia ones.

My former GP wanted a paper logbook filled in, she gave me a shed load of books to use, which went back over the reception counter on the way out.

I continue to give my new GP a one month printout from my meter, with a couple of graphs included when I need a new NDSS testing strip request form is due every six months.
