| After 43 years of this...I probably hate "logging numbers" more than the disease itself! I think it's "ok" to not log...if a few compromises are met...
Such as backing up a doctors appointment with an excellent A1C test. If that number isn't so great...then a two-week log would be needed, minimum.
A doctor should understand teens and "logging"...which is different than testing. I test all day. I just hate the extra step of writing it down or downloading...whatever. It's a mental fight for me.
Yet, I still manage to take about two weeks of numbers to the doctor each visit. Especially to a new doctor. Sometimes I pull them out, sometimes not...but I'm always prepared.
I find the numbers are confusing for the doctors since they tend to concentrate on one particular day they like or don't like...it the case of my last doctor, she only noticed the first log number...the rest just didn't sink in with her and that's understandable.
Also, it helps if you come up with a "fun" way to log. Stick a chart on the bathroom mirror. Or set up a special page on the computer...something to catch a few numbers.
Ideally, you would have a pre-meal number and a post-meal number for all meals...but I often have a few open spots.
I hated those "little log books"...instead, I just grab my daily planner and jot the number there...then transfer later for a doctors appointment.
Key, just find something that works...even if it's a compromise at this point.
til the day I die...I hate logging. Not testing...logging.  |
