2. Talk to your doctor to see if alternative site testing is right for you. With a
little bit of education, you can give your fingertips a rest and maybe test
more often than you do now. For people with diabetes, more frequent test-
ing is a good thing. Just remember: any time you want to be sure of an ac-
curate, up-to-date blood glucose reading, test on your fingertip.
3. We strongly recommend you do AST ONLY in the following intervals:
● In a pre-meal or fasting state (more than 2 hours since the last meal).
● Two hours or more after taking insulin.
● Two hours or more after exercise.
DO NOT use AST if:
● You think your blood glucose is low.
● You are unaware of hypoglycemia.
● Your AST results do not match the way you feel.
● You are testing for hyperglycemia.
● Your routine glucose results are often fluctuating.
● If you are pregnant.
