[QUOTE="AndyS, post: 258966, member: 20775"] 16 tests in a day. I feel sorry for you on that one but I salute your devotion to the cause (hmm.. no fist in the air emoticon.. a shortfall methinks) Anyhow I know exactly where you are coming from and, while not quite 16 odd, I have done plenty to see what the whole story is. One thing I have learned is that there is a LOT of weird transient rubbish that needs to be discarded and if we looked at it all will only muddy the water and confuse us (more...). As an example. Last night I had a lateish dinner and when I headed off to bed my BG was 9 (I had been expecting 6ish) which is odd because 2 hours after eating I was at 6.9, but when I woke this morning it was 6.3 So sometimes you have to simply log your data points and trust in your maths (scary I know) but if it doesn't work you simply need to look back and work out what adjustments you need to make for the future. It is odd but in some cases too much data can be a bad thing. One of the hardest things to learn (for me at least) was to ignore readings and trust that my calculations were right and everthing would word out. Best of luck to all fighting the good fight ;) /A [/QUOTE]
