Hello
I've just got this meter and absolutely love it. Finding it really useful to helping me control my BG.
I just have a few queries that I don't find particular clear guidance in the manual and was wondering if anyone could give a little guidance on from their experience?
- Bolus Advice - all pretty clear except for snack size. Is this essentially the amount normally considered an insulin free snack? If so, when I enter 1CP(10g) amount the meter would not advise any insulin, except for any required adjustment/correction? However if at a meal, it wouldn't ignore 1CP of the total meal value would it?
- second thing is how does one work out what their meal rise is to populate that field correctly?
- finally - do people use it like an electronic diary? Do you complete insulin free snacks? Do people retrospectively use the machine for adding data when separated from the machine eg. Adding a meal and Bolus dose you may have had when out and about and without the machine?
Thanks very much for your help.
