[numan43]

my codefree arrived today so begins another new start after having type2 diabetes since 1994 and not self tested for 10 years

first test at 11am.....11.0 not so good

second test at 2pm.... 6.5 what the heck?????

I test first thing (fasting), before meals and 2 hours after, so 7 times a day, sometimes more. I record all the readings and everything I eat. This gives me a picture over the months of what spikes me and what doesn't. Then hopefully my annual HbA1C result will be a bit lower.
These days I stop testing for up to 3 weeks and then do another week, 7 times a day, 7 days, and add it to the record. I now experiment more with one-off trials of, for example, low-carb bread.
Random tests tell me nothing really.

Hi @numan43

What do you typically eat?

Have a read of the first item linked in my sig below and ask any questions.
