2 hr testing

When I got my pump, they set my duration at 3hrs. So that's when I try to test. That way I don't have any insulin on board, and can see if I've dosed correctly. Then I can make a correction if needed. It's just what works for me. I have tested at 2 hrs in the past. I'm almost always under 200 at 2 hrs, so I like to see if I'm in my range at 3 hrs, when my insulin has supposedly reached its duration.
