It's been nearly 8 months since I was diagnosed and I feel like I am starting to get the hang of things.
I started noting test results and insulin doses in a diary provided by my nurse and also kept more detailed records with a food and exercise log for a few weeks on the recommendation of the dietitians.
However I am slipping. I find it easy to test each mealtime but I've not been writing the results down immediately. I've been trying to make sure I copy the results out from the monitor every couple of weeks (more if I notice a couple of odd results in a day) but that doesn't keep track of my insulin doses.
How do other people do this and what do I need to be keeping track of?
