subject: Testing Strategies

Just out of curiousity... what testing regimes do you use?  There are 
many... for instance.

Some test 4x a day... once at bedtime and 2 hours after consumption of 
every meal.

Some test 4x a day once at wake and before each meal.

I'm on an insulin pump and test quite often... sometimes 12x a day.

Once at waking time... once before and two hours after and if I am high 
2 hours after my pump corrects with a dose and I will test one hour 
after that.  Then once at midnight and -if- I wake in the middle of my 
sleep will test that too.

It seems that the more I test and test strategically the better control 
I have.  I was curious as to what methods other people use and how it 
works for them?
