That is insanely silly. Good luck finding a new doc, and let us know!

I agree with all that testing is important to help us find the foods that effect us most and least.

When my sister was diagnosed, her plan only allowed her two tests per day. With my encouragement, she is now testing whenever she wants, but had to push to get her strip allotment raised.

Testing = personal control.
