Do we need a glucose meter?
My dad was just newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. He has been prescribed metformin. Do we need to buy a glucose monitor for him so he can monitor blood glucose levels?
We live in Canada.
Yes, he needs to know his sugar levels, and keep
track of them, so he can learn how he feels, and
what he needs to do to get him back where he
needs to be.
In Canada, they usually send you to diabetes school
Why hasn't he gone? This is a life and death
disease, he needs all the info he can get
