July 2021 

 My first family MD told me to test my blood sugar twice a day on two different days. I took his advise of testing first thing in the morning on Tuesday and Thursday and just before eating my evening meal.

My VA Doc changed the second "testing time" to two hours after I finished eating dinner. 

My three family MDs since 2004 and various VA Docs have agreed with this testing plan. Kathie is  type 2 as well and we both are testing on Monday and Thursday.

^* I ate very little yesterday and felt worst this morning than when I was scoring in the 70s to 90s in the morning.   AM 129  Mid  162   PM  186

^MID The people who are supporting me at Blue Cross recommend I test three times a day. (I guess I have been doing the twice a day for long enough to raise their hopes?) The late afternoon sampling is the third set of numbers. I am going to bracket my evening meal but I don't know how often or how long I will do this.

oops I inadverntantly conducted a biological experiment upon myself. I thought I had everything together for an over night trip to Wichita.
