My friend Dave who is over 60 lives in rural France. Me and the other half visit quite often. It's lovely there.
Dave is Type 1 and takes mixed insulin. I've never seen him test and the last time I saw his BG meter that was still in the box.
I asked him if his meter was broken and he said he doesn't need to test. He said he rarely goes hypo. (One a month if ever.)
I know he and his other half are very careful healthy eaters and rarely eat processed foods.
I worry that Dave may be have a high HbA1c and is asking for complications.
What can I say to him to encourage him to test?
