Free Printable Diabetic Logs

Have you been searching for places to get a diabetic log book? Are you sick of trying to figure out scribbles from a notebook that you made your diabetes log book? Did you know there are places online to get logs for diabetics to print for free? These diabetes log book sheets can be printed out from your computer and assist you in monitoring several aspects of your diabetes for better, easier recall and smoother doctors visits.

One of the best places to get logs for diabetics to print for free and charts to quickly and easily track different aspects of your diabetes is www.freeprintablemedicalforms.com/category/diabetic. There they have several different options of forms for you to choose from and they are all printable. This gives you the freedom to manage and monitor many different issues related to your diabetes depending on what is most important for you. Some of the forms they have are:
  • Blood glucose testing records
  • Blood sugar tracker
  • Insulin shot record
  • Diabetes shot rotation chart
These are just a few of the logs they have to offer. One of the plus sides to this site is that most of the logs they offer are in both regular and large print format for elderly or low sighted individuals. It is a very good way to keep track of multiple things at once and have a record of for you physician's visit so there is no more guessing. This helps keep your health at its best and your diabetes under control. Another bonus of this website is that they offer several different log forms for different aspects of health and wellness. One of the logs that may also be useful for a diabetic is the food and nutrition forms to help you monitor your diet as well as track your meals along with your blood sugar and insulin and remind you when you last ate and what it was. The best part, of course, is that they are free.

Another place you might want to check out is www.diabeteschart.org/meterlog.html. This site allows you to print your diabetic log book for the whole month for your glucose meter readings and these can be recorded up to six times per day. They also have other printable charts available (check at the top of the page) such as a daily or weekly diary, lab test log, HbA1c to glucose conversion chart and more for your convenience. It is a little bit harder to find where the links to the extra charts are but it is a page to consider for some alternative and helpful charts and logs.

If you are a little bit more computer oriented then you can find some excel spreadsheets which you can print out and use at www.diabeticconnect.com/diabetes-discussions/general/4502-free-blood-sugar-tracking-spreadsheets. The links to the different logs are at the bottom of the short article and help you monitor blood sugar. They are all set up differently so you might want to look at them all and see which one is right for you.

A different site which seems to mainly target those with type two diabetes is www.type2diabetesguide.com/free-diabetic-log-sheets.shtml#.U9j_OPldWSo. There are only a couple logs on this site so you might save this for after you have looked at some of the other sites and still can't find what you need. This site has charts for monitoring your blood glucose readings after each meal or snack. There is also another chart for charting your blood glucose readings after each meal and your insulin dosage. If something like this might be more helpful for you then this site may be a good option. They also have some informative articles available if you have questions about your diabetes.

Finally, one of the easier to use websites with log sheets available for you to print off is www.integrateddiabetes.com/diabetic-logsheets/. The best part about this site, besides the selection of sheets available, is that they explain very well what each chart and log can be used for and what it has on it so you know almost before you click on the link what you are getting. With this site there is no searching for what chart will work best for you. Each chart is easy to find and you also have access to some other helpful links, sites and resources from the page. This site is a great resource as well for new diabetics or those helping a diabetic with their diabetes.
