Hi
I was testing as my doctor thought i had full diabetes and was allowing me test strips - since i have been diagnosed with pre-diabetes she now says i dont need to test, so im basically left to go it alone until my yearly GTT, should i be testing? im thinking i may have to buy my own strips because i have no idea what im eating is doing to me....for a box of 50 strips it cost $40, and a prescrition cost $3. I really want to keep away from type 2 as long as i possibly can and everything i eat worry's me as i cant test.
