Record your results

Talk with your healthcare professional about how often you need to record your blood sugar results. The readings given by many devices can be sent to a computer or smart device.

If you write or type your results in a diary, be sure to record the:

• Date.
• Time.
• Test results.
• Any medicines and the dose you take.
• Diet and exercise information.

Bring your record of results with you to checkups with your healthcare professional. Ask what steps to take if you often get results that don't fall within the range of your target goals.
