If you want to take things in hand test at least one meal /day as in just before food in mouth and 2hrs after and do different food/meals/days build up a database. Scouser we know how food is affecting us we allow for variations and as a T2 we do not need to be 100% in fact no meter is. And the reason buying their own is because they are T2 and the dr do not generally supply l am lucky l get 1xpot/month the only one as far as l know in our practice to do so but l provide paperwork of exercise/diet/ and general management so they see that l know how to manage and have long discussions when l go and made it clear l will be testing come hell high water and a following wind. l think they do a short supply for those who really want to test  1xpot/yr/1 test/week waste of time and resources.... and as l stated why bother. </blockquote>
