If true, the process flows to step 422 where it is determined as to whether the Prior BG result falls within a time window (e.g., 3 hours) spanning the time at which the most recent BG results was taken. In this example, if the most recent BG result was taken at 9:00A.M., the Prior BG must be: (a) lower than the LOW limit; and (b) taken at any time between 6:00 AM and 12 noon on one of the prior 5 days.

This is intended to help users understand the relationship between the Before Meal limit and tagging. In other words, if tagging of before meal measurements are not made, then there is little value in providing high trend messages. Additionally, even if tagging is enabled, the user is reminded by message that tagging should be used consistently in order for the before meal high trend to be of value to the user.
