Can you tell me reasons why i have to get my blood sugar tested?

Depends: The numbers help your doctor to determine if a change in your diabetes regimen is needed. If you are on oral medications, the numbers help the doc determine if a different or additional pill is needed to control the numbers. If you are on insulin, it's very important to check bs regularly so that the dose of Insulin can be adjusted accordingly.
