1. A method for managing three day profile blood glucose (bG) measurements provided by a user on a handheld diabetes management device, the method comprising:

  • configuring a database of the device to store a plurality of bG test values input by a user for each day of a three day test period, wherein bG test values are required to be provided by the user in accordance with a predetermined plurality of differing acceptance time windows during each day of the three day test period;

    receiving, by a processing subsystem of the device, a given bG test value at a given time;

    recognizing, by the processing subsystem, that at least two of the predetermined plurality of differing acceptance time windows overlap relative to a user set meal time;

    prompting, by the processing subsystem, user to select an acceptance time window from the at least two acceptance time windows proximate to the given time when the at least two acceptance time windows are open concurrently;

    receiving, by the processing subsystem, a selected acceptance time window from the at least two acceptance time windows, associating the given bG test value with the selected acceptance time window and storing the given bG test value in the selected acceptance time window;

    determining, by the processing subsystem, whether a predetermined minimum plurality of the stored bG test values has been provided by the user during the predetermined plurality of differing acceptance time windows for a given day of the three day test period and accepting the bG test values provided by the user as three day bG profile results when the predetermined minimum plurality of the stored bG test values has been provided by the user for the given day; and

    discarding the bG test values when the predetermined minimum plurality of bG test values is not provided for the given day of the three day test period.
