My first MD - DR. Hotester - told me to test my blood sugar upon awakening and 2 hours after finishing my evening meal twice a week. I am now doing this Monday and Thursday.

*After a score of 84 the night before, I was curious what my "score" would be the next morning. I didn't feel hunger during the night which puzzled me. I expected my morning "score" to be in the 60s.
I was surprised to find it was 73; this is a low normal "score" for me. Once again, I have to admit I do not understand blood sugar...
