Symptoms don't match sensor readings
When how you feel doesn't match your sensor reading, use your BG
meter to treat even if you have a number and arrow.
For example, you don't feel good, but your sensor readings show
you're in range. Wash your hands thoroughly and use your BG
meter. If the BG meter value matches your symptoms, use the BG
meter value to treat.

When to watch and wait

Don't stack insulin by taking doses too close together. Talk to your
healthcare provider about the right amount of time for you to wait
between doses so you don't accidentally force your glucose down
too low.
This is different from taking insulin doses to cover what you just ate.
