[Diabetes-talk] Solo meter??

[cheryl echevarria]

yes because the blood is more of a current indicator, if you are spilling keytones in your urine, there is already damage somewhere.
I studied this when I went for medical billing/coding and we had to study anatomy and other issues. Diabetes is the number one cause of many other diseases.
Like High Blood Pressure, Kidney Failure, Heart Disease. ETc.
So if you have keytones in your urine, rather high enough to show issues, then there can already be issues with bladder, kidney etc.
Taking your sugar anywhere from 3 to 6 times a day, is more an accurate reading.
