Message: <blockquote data-quote="Robo42" data-source="post: 2708620" data-attributes="member: 208584">I was diagnosied type 2 over 20 years ago & only managed to be diet controlled because of originally testing pre/apres meals & logging what I ate. SO I could see what affected ME.  Only last couple of years have I gone onto a small dose of Sitagliptin. At first I had test strips on prescription but soon stopped, most testers have been free but test strips can be costly. I now just test when I feel high/low or eat something I am not use to. My hba1c is tested mostly once a year used to be twice a year, fairly steady at 41. Gps still say don't test which is rubbish. My tester is a basic one but test strips are a fair price. I would not have been able to be diet controlled for so long without knowing what affects me.</blockquote>
