I’m recently diagnosed Type 2 on diet and Metformin.
I have a Wavesense Jazz Test kit, could someone tell me when I should test, how often and what range my results should be within? My average is currently 6.4
 
Hi there and welcome.
Test first thing in the morning before you start rushing around getting ready for your day.

Test before the first bite of a meal then two hours after the first bite of food.
The difference between the two readings should be no more than 2mmol preferably less than that.

Keep a food diary and record all your readings alongside what was eaten. This will teach you what your food choices are doing to your blood glucose levels.

Good luck.
