Ellie's Elephants

How often do you test? Do you skip a lot? Which meter do you have? Do you use monitoring software? Which finger do you use the most? Take a photo of your fingers and lets see if we can connect the dots!

I'm currently in a not great phase of blood glucose monitoring.  And that accounts for my higher than I normally am glycosolated hemoglobin a1c ( < 7% is ideal) of 7.3.  

I've come to realize that I go in peaks and valleys of blood glucose.  I'll do really good at checking four times a day for a while... months even.  And, then, somehow, I fall out habit, I forget, life gets in the way, endless upon endless excuses and I find it's been days since my last check.  That's where I'm at now.  

I KNOW.  Shocking.    I'm not proud.
