Use Fingertip Testing:
• Within two hours after a meal.
• Within two hours after insulin dosing.
• Within two hours after physical activity.
• If you have a history of hypoglycemia, are experiencing low
blood glucose, or suffer from hypoglycemic unawareness (you
cannot tell when you have low blood glucose).
• To confirm your blood glucose level if your AST result is not
consistent with how you feel.
• During times of stress or illness.
Ask your diabetes healthcare professional about recommended testing
procedures when operating machinery or driving a car, as fingertip testing
is usually the preferred method of testing under these circumstances.
If bruising occurs, you may choose to lance a fingertip instead.
