Testing urine gives results of what ones BG was 12-15 hours ago not what it is right at the moment as needed when using bolus insulin.

You know you keep ranting on me about how much you know but once again everything you say is wrong about type 1.Has it ever occured to you that what you say someone could take literally and die because of it?

Actually, no, it gives a moving average over the period between urinations.

A glucose peak will hit your kidneys in a minute or less, and the representation depends on how frequently you urinate.
