[QUOTE="Sookie, post: 163784, member: 30736"] When I went to speak to my Doctor recently he mentioned that I really only need to text once a week, I was a bit concerned with him saying that to me especially with me not being under control. I fought hard for my strips and he allowed me enough strips for me to test 3 times a day. Unfortunately that only allows me to test before meals so I can work out how much insulin to take. My husband recently told me about the "Dawn Phenomenon" which could be the reason why I am really high in the morning (13+) and by lunchtime I have calmed down to below 7. My evening readings are lower in comparison, I sometimes go to bed with readings like 4 or 5. I might use an extra strip before bed after reading this post. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
