The only way to actually find out if your sugar level is too high, too low or well balanced is to test your blood sugar level regularly by pricking your finger with a lancer and a lancet.
Choose the finger you want to prick avoiding your thumb and index finger (your first finger).
Massage your finger carefully. This helps bring blood into your finger.
Using a lancer and a lancet, prick the side of your finger. Do not prick the very end because it is more likely to hurt.
Once you have pricked your finger, put a drop of blood onto a test strip and read the result. Write your results in your diary.
