I was just wondering roughly how many times a day should bloodsugars be checked?.My daughter has five injections a day and I would test her bloodsugars about 7 times a day.The reason for asking is that I was told by the chemist that most people check once a day and that because I was having to test as much as i do that she must be on the wrong type of insulin.I did tell her that I thought she was wrong.I think perhaps she is confusing it with type two.I would just be interested in other peoples views on testing.thanks,things seems to be getting more difficult just when I thought that perhaps they would be easier by now.
