With me, I didn't have the ability to test via a meter for the first two years after diagnosis (only had keto-diastix), so when I got the meter, I started testing & never really looked back. Am I perfect & do I test every minute? No, and when I was younger, I tested about 6 times a day at the most (sometimes less). It was only when I was trying to get on the pump that I got in gear & started testing 10 times+ a day. Since then, I've been checking non-stop, and as someone else mentioned, feel naked without my meter.

Dobson, it may be a phase, but since you are aware of it, try to do what you can to get back on track. We love & worry about our family members here, so please don't take this as preaching....we just want to help one another, especially in "down" times.
