  • (a) a computing device, comprising;

    (i) a memory comprising one or more optimal blood glucose values, one or more self care values of a patient, one or more measured blood glucose values, and one or more scaling factors for weighting the impact on a future blood glucose value and that are customizable to an individual patient to predict the effect on the blood glucose of self care actions performed by the individual patient;

    (ii) a microprocessor, in communication with said memory, programmed to (A) determine said one or more scaling factors from one or more physiological parameters including body mass, metabolism rate, fitness level or hepatic or peripheral insulin sensitivity, or combinations thereof, and (B) calculate a further value, said further value being based on said self care values, and on said one or more optimal blood glucose values, and on said one or more scaling factors; and

    (iii) a display configured to display information according to said further value; and

    (iv) a housing, wherein said memory and said microprocessor are housed within said housing, thereby providing a hand-held, readily transportable computing device; and
