Told to test 4 times a day.....when??

Hi, I have started Lantus Insulin today and my DSN has told me to test more often than I do, she has asked for 4 times a day, and for the first week one of those times to b 3am. I am taking my Lantus at dinner time in the evening, has anyone any best ideas of the other 3 times to record? I was thinking on waking, before lunch, 2 hours after dinner and 3am, how does that sound?

GP is really helpful, more strips wouldn't be a problem at all. It was just suggested by the nurse. Not just on Lantus also on:

Bydureon Injections weekly
Gliclazide 2 x daily

Well I have tested a little bit more to start anyway, more really because I am interested in the action of the Lantus on my bloods. I have been running in the high teens to low twenties for months, and only recently this started to drop but just not enough.

My pre-lunch reading was 5.1 and I was feeling a little Hypo-ish. But cannot begin to say how relieved I am on this happening, I just feel so pleased that the readings are coming down.

I got confused this morning though and I did take the canoglaflixin when I should have stopped them, so I can't tell if it is the Lantus or the Cano, but I have taken it out of my pill box, and won't have it tomorrow so I will check the readings against today.
