Tips for remembering blood tests?

[WiKidWeirdKid]

Remembering to test has always been an issue and I go through bouts of doing well and then I'm back to like 1-2 tests a day again. Anyone have any tips for remembering for me? Anything that might help is much appreciated, thanks!

Welcome.

Maybe each time you test, work out what you'll be doing when you next need to test, and leave your test kit somewhere you'll trip over it ( metaphorically) when you get to that time.

Could you set an alarm on your phone for a time when you would normally be going to eat to get you in the testing habit again?

Thanks for the suggestions! I've not tried the leaving it places thing, I'll be sure to in the future tho.

How about sticking a little label on your pen?

I'm actually on a minimed pump currently but I'll apply the same tip and stick one on it. I check the time on it a lot so this might really help, thanks!
