I find quite the opposite in my case. I found testing to be very
important while I was trying to figure this things out. I don't
test as frequently now days, but I do test when I change my
routine, and also at other times to insure that what I am doing
is maintaining the desired BG levels. If you give individuals
extra strips and tell them to test more often while not
educating
them as to what to do with the measurements it is not a valid
study.

among senate democrats regarding the adminstation not turning
over documents associated with the Roberts nomination to the
Supreme Court. In the past they have proven fully capable of
writing their own.
