Study after study shows that frequent testing does not improve control

The strange thing is that even though it is obvious to some of us that
the problem is not acting on the results, others somehow manage to turn
it into advice: "Don't test, because it doesn't help."

Even doctors do it. I asked for a strips prescription:
"What do you need that for? There's nothing short-term you can do anyway."

But he did have good advice about d&e, and next visit I'll ask again and
point out that my reasonably good HbA1c may be due to testing on my own.
The cost here is about US $1.- per strip, so a prescription would help.
If only US netshops were willing to ship to Europe :-)
