[QUOTE="DavidGrahamJones, post: 1996595, member: 245335"] I see there has been some research to suggest that the anxiety caused causes BG and BP to rise. There was a time when my dad would test regularly but at the time he was told he could no longer get a prescription, he was also told he didn't have to test. This was right up my dad's street. Knowing he would only have to have an HbA1c annually he would eat like someone who didn't have diabetes for 9 months and then eat sensibly for the two to three months before the HbA1c. He is 92 in April and most of his problems are diabetes related. It didn't have to be that way if he had monitored more regularly, he even admitted to me that not monitoring meant he didn't worry or get anxious, so maybe being anxious is a good way to make people make the right choices.
