[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 2123314, member: 93179"] I've never use test strips for continuous testing, but I have varied when I test, or done additional tests, at times when I've wanted more/extra information, and not just for food - things like medications, steroid jabs, stress, illness, (and even hot baths!), etc, all can have an impact on glucose levels too, so are worth being aware of. But a sensor is IMO is essential for finding our more about whats going on continuously over longer periods, so has been my tool of choice. Regarding double spikes I've seen double "bumps" when I've eaten something that's both heavy in carbs and fats. From Libre logs: [ATTACH]35275[/ATTACH] Robbity [/QUOTE]
