[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 379504, member: 17713"] Hi Megan I empathise completely. You can only do small steps at a time. 1st step you have taken-posting here. Would you be able to put a blood tester permanently on your pillow? It does remind you to test pre bed and when you get up. My blood tester onmy pillow also set for 3am.. Just a small regular step like that would be a start. I have remote for my pump so everywhere I go my remote goes too. I cant lecture on forcing routine testing, But just one more small step is needed. I would get some free bg meters.. (same ones for the strips from gp) and say leave a meter on my stack of plates in the cupboard. Not a visible reminder permanently on show... But a reminder to test when loading a plate at home. Would also suggest you talk to gp or dsn, -I had one GP that I could email my readings to, and he encouraged me no end. There are some good and some bad listeners. I actually saw all my gp's at my current practice and opted to see a grossly overweight gp... On the basis he couldnt really lecture me if he is so obese. You can do it.. Small steps make for big strides!!!! Sent from the [url=http://www.diabetes.co.uk/app/?utm_source=sig&utm_medium=txt&utm_campaign=appsig]Diabetes Forum App[/url] [/QUOTE]
