[QUOTE="ert, post: 2057172, member: 504712"] Could you ask to have a glucose tolerance test as evidence that you need testing strips to control your BG levels to avoid spikes that will cause you to have to move onto other medication including insulin? Don't do it yourself, it would have to be done through your GP or specialist where they measure your insulin and glucose over the two hours. My GP and specialist wanted to know about how my response to eating after fasting, phase 1 of phase 2 insulin production was impaired. I have no phase 1 insulin after eating, which suggests beta cell destruction, as well as 2 rising to 4 mmol/l of phase 2 insulin. It was very informative and it's how I manage my diabetes without insulin. [/QUOTE]
